Siccagno is my Nero d'Avola, born from that concentrated grape that is called Siccagna. The Nero that tells a lot about Sicily, which is wild, but also fresh and elegant, with a flavor of red fruits. That he has something noble and aristocratic, but also melancholy as a poet or a philosopher. Which is passionate, full of human warmth and contrasts. The Nero which is the grape of our fathers and unites Sicily from corner to corner and better captures its spirit for centuries. A wine that I love deeply, and that has always been with me since the first year.
