Conteco
Nero d'Avola - Sicilia D.O.C.
Bright ruby red color. On the nose, fruity notes of licorice, black cherry, and forest fruits such as blackberry.
Pairings
Pesto with Mediterranean basil, pasta alla Norma, Nebrodi black pork sauce, hearty first courses.
Vastedda del Belice cheese, fresh mild cheese are excellent choices for a pre-dinner.
Black pork salami with pistachio, pork coppa for an outdoor snack.
White meats, sausage with wild fennel, involtini (meat rolls), are the beginning of a Sicilian barbecue.
Winemaking
After destemming and crushing, yeast inoculation is carried out.
The grapes ferment in steel tanks with the skins for 15 days at a temperature of about 22°C – 23°C.
Then the wine is drawn off, and the obtained wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in steel, a process that adds smoothness.
Bottling begins in March, followed by bottle aging for at least three months.
The sun and the stars
Conteco celebrates an encounter: the story of a love that is expressed here metaphorically through the relationship between day and night.
