Sicilia Nero d’Avola Bacò
Nero d’Avola is a premium Sicilian grape variety, grown in the mountain viticulture at altitudes between 400 and 500 meters above sea level. This enhances its freshness, verticality, intense fruity notes, and drinkability. ‘Bacò’ is one of the most common nicknames in the village of Valledolmo where this wine is born. With this name they celebrate the local/native people and their families.
