Impari Nero d'Avola Sicilia
The grapes for this wine grow on the island of Sicily in the hills near Lago Arancio. This is located in the southeastern part of the island near Sambuca di Sicilia, where the relatively young winery Vigneti Zabù has its cellar. The vines for this wine thrive on loamy soil that retains water very well, so the vines survive the hot summer well. After a gentle harvest, the destemmed grapes are macerated for 10-12 days with temperature control, and the must is fermented in barriques of French and American oak after pressing. After fermentation, the wine is stored for 8 months in the barrique barrels before it is bottled and rests for another 6 months before sale.
The Impari shows an almost infinite variety of aromas in the nose. Ripe dark fruits, such as plums, various dark berries, and elderberry, complement each other with spicy notes of allspice, licorice, dark chocolate, and coffee.
On the palate, then, a firework of aromas. The fruity and spicy components come out beautifully and complement each other with the soft, velvety tannins to create a long-lasting mouthfeel.

An excellent powerful wine that I always
An excellent powerful wine that I always like to order again.
Too expensive
From my point of view, this wine is not worth its money. For the price, there are much better and more elegant, more complex wines.

The best Nero d'Avola we know.

Relatively mediocre
A properly produced Nero d‘Avola actually tastes good from almost every price category, but this one brings no extra joy for a wine of the middle price class, taste-wise rather average, the Impari leaves no lasting impressions on the pal...

Best wine ever
I am so glad that the '13 is still available. I immediately ordered 6 more bottles.
Quick answers
How does the Impari Nero d'Avola taste?
Dark fruit like plum and elderberry meets allspice, licorice, and a hint of dark chocolate. The tannins are soft and velvety, the finish long and spicy.
Is the wine dry?
Yes, the Impari is vinified dry and, despite the intense fruit, shows no sweet note, but rather a powerful, spicy structure.
What does the Impari pair with best?
It accompanies lamb, game, and goose just as well as hearty pasta dishes or aged cheeses. The velvety tannins harmonize well with intense meat and sauce notes.
At what temperature should it be served?
Best at 16 to 18 °C, i.e., classic red wine temperature. Served slightly cooler, it feels fresher, but it should be allowed to warm up in the glass.
How is the wine vinified?
After fermentation in barriques, the Nero d'Avola matures for 8 months in French and American oak barrels before resting for another 6 months in the bottle. This aging provides the spicy coffee and chocolate notes.
Do I have to decant the bottle before opening?
It is not strictly necessary, but a short decanting of 20 to 30 minutes additionally opens up the aromas of the barrique aging and lets the fruity notes emerge more clearly.
The Winery
Vigneti Zabù comes from the heart of Sicily – an island that has always understood wine as more than just a drink: as an expression of earth, sun and strength of character.
Zabù is driven by a passion for indigenous grape varieties like Nero d'Avola and Grillo , which thrive on the region's barren, mineral-rich soils. The wines are honest, approachable, and brimming with Sicilian energy – warm, deep, and vibrant.
If you want to experience Sicily in a glass, Zabù is the right place for you.
