Vigneti Zabu
Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean sea, and the five million people who call it home are great lovers of incredible produce and resonsible for some of the best food and drink you`ll find. Made in vineyards located in the hills around Lake Arancio, in the south-west of the island, Vigneti Zabu is a new producer, making wines from a range of grapes including Nero d`Avolo, whose dark fruit and chocolatey characteristics thrive in the hot, arid landscapes of Sicily.

Sicily
The southern Italian island of Sicily has a long history of making wine and boasts a tremendous output, from some 115,000 hectares of grapes grown across its diverse landscape. Much of the island's wine has for too long been devoted to listless whites made in vast quantities and shipped in bulk for blending. But, like most other volume-driven wine regions local winemakers are turning to a more quality-focused approach, combining modern and traditional techniques to make better wine. Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean and has a very diverse landscape, with the hot flatlands of the south giving way to lush vegetation and snow-capped mountains around the north-east. As historical producers, the styles of wines have changed significantly in Sicily over time. Once known for sweet Muscats and dry, fortified Marsala, Sicily's wine of the moment is bold, spicy Nero d'Avola, brimming with blackberries and liquorice. Imported varieties, particularly Syrah, also do well in Sicily and are used to add spice and elegance to red blends.

Nero d‘Avola
Nero d‘Avola
Nero d`Avola is an important black grape to the island of Sicily, and the vines produce good yields of dark-coloured grapes that are at their best in warm, dry climates. Wines made from Nero d`Avola have deep flavours of blackberries, with peppery notes and firm, sweet tannin. The grape’s name comes from the town of Avola on the island`s southeast coast, and the wines are most commonly compared to Syrah/Shiraz, thanks to the similarity of their characteristics.
