This is what good wine from the Nero d'Avola grape tastes like

Nero d'Avola is a Sicilian grape that produces robust, powerful red wines. They can be quite heavy, dark in color, and age well, especially when aged in oak barrels.

Nero d'Avola has conquered the shelves of Dutch liquor stores in recent years. It fits perfectly with the trend for heavier red wines like Shiraz, Zinfandel, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Sicily is the birthplace of Nero d'Avola, and the vast majority of wines made from this grape still originate from there. Experiments with the grape are now underway in Australia.
