Lamuri
An expression of Nero d’Avola grapes from the high hills. Intense primary aromas, without excess ripeness, differentiate it from the grape variety grown in the coastal and flatland areas of Sicily. A mix of various aged barriques gives soft and elegant tannins without an invasive woodiness. This wine is “L’Amore,” the love that Tasca d’Almerita puts into its work.
