    Poggio Anima Nero d'Avola 2023

    From the sun-scorched volcanic soils of Sicily comes this expressive Nero d'Avola from Poggio Anima — a label celebrated for capturing the wild, soulful character of southern Italy's most celebrated indigenous red grape. The 2023 vintage delivered generous warmth and concentrated fruit, balanced by the island's cooling Mediterranean breezes and the natural acidity that makes Nero d'Avola so compelling at the table.

    Tasting Notes:

    • Appearance: Deep ruby-violet with a rich, opaque core
    • Nose: Intense aromas of ripe black cherry, plum, dried fig, and dark chocolate, with hints of tobacco, licorice, and warm spice
    • Palate: Full-bodied and generous, with velvety tannins, vibrant acidity, and flavors of blackberry, espresso, and Mediterranean herbs
    • Finish: Long and warming, with a lingering note of dark fruit and earthy minerality

    Terroir & Winemaking:

    Grown on Sicily's mineral-rich soils under intense Mediterranean sun, Nero d'Avola thrives where few grapes dare. Poggio Anima vinifies with care to preserve the grape's natural structure and fruit purity, with brief oak aging to add depth without masking the variety's bold, authentic character.

    Drinking Window: Enjoy now through 2029. Decant for 20–30 minutes. Serve at 62–65°F.

    Perfect Pairings: Grilled lamb, braised wild boar, aged pecorino, eggplant parmigiana, or hearty Sicilian pasta with meat ragù.

    A wine with soul — dark, generous, and unmistakably Sicilian.
