Tasting notes
Deep and intensely fruity, with aromas of ripe dark berries, plum and dried fruit. The palate is full, velvety and soft, with concentrated fruit, a gentle sweetness from the dried grapes and a long, warm finish.
About this wine
Lu Beddu – "the beautiful one" in Sicilian – is a range of Sicilian wines from Riolite Vini, bottled at the Baglio Cumale cooperative in Santa Ninfa, in western Sicily. This red is pure Nero d'Avola, the island's flagship grape.
For the appassimento method the best grapes are dried before fermentation, giving intensity and a velvety texture. The 2023 is deep and intensely fruity, velvety and soft, full and generous, with a noticeable touch of sweetness and 14% alcohol. It won gold at the Berlin Wine Trophy and 99 points from Luca Maroni.
Serve at 16–18 °C with roast meats and cold cuts.
