Product information

Colpasso is a new way of producing Nero d' Avola. A small percentage of the wine from the sun dried grapes is added to the blend, to give an additional layer of complexity and charm, resulting in a full, round, soft wine, rich and elegant on the palate with a long exciting finish. Perfect with roasts, red meats, game and mature cheese.

Vinification Details
Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature between 22-24°C, with pumping over of the must in order to achieve the best extraction of colour, soft tannins and aromas from the skins. The grapes for ¿appassimento¿ are dried for about 30 days on trays in a ventilated room until they lose at least 25% of their natural weight. After ¿appassimento¿ the grapes are gently crushed and fermented at about 24 C°. The two wines are blended together in order to produce the malolactic fermentation.

Bit Ordinary

Very young and straightforward wine. Just about OK value at 25% off, but £11 for a bottle - no way.

Lovely full body

This a s lovely full body wine. You can use an aerator but was also fine without aerating it.

A favourite! Despite ‘organic’ ambiguity…

Love love love this, and there’s a lot of nero d’avolo that I don’t. Thoroughly recommend. It always appears when I search for organic red, and that’s how I discovered it, but there’s no reference to organic on the label. Would be good to know it’s status, although it will remain a favourite either way.

Lovely easy going red

This is an easy drinking wine with fruity undertones. Not too harsh on the palette. Wish it was organic too!
