TANK 26 Nero d'Avola Appassimento

A Nero d'Avola that brings the Sicilian sun to the glass in concentrated form: partially dried using the appassimento method, intense yet soft on the palate.

Camivini employs the appassimento technique for TANK 26 – the grapes are dried on racks after harvesting before fermentation. The result is a Nero d'Avola with significantly increased concentration, noticeable residual sweetness, and a rich body typical of this style. The silver medal awarded at Mundus Vini (2016 vintage) confirms the quality of this approach.

The nose is dominated by raisins and prunes , complemented by Mediterranean herbs – thyme and a hint of lavender. On the palate, the wine is dense and full-bodied, with residual sweetness rounding off the ripe tannins. A subtle dark chocolate note emerges on the finish, which is long and lingering.

Serving temperature: 16–18 °C. Pairs well with braised lamb , venison ragù, or strong hard cheeses like Pecorino Stagionato. Also a harmonious choice to accompany dark chocolate or an evening cheese board.
