Lu Patri, which means “father” in Sicilian dialect, indicates the forefather. The meaning of this name can be found in the complexity of this wine version, which seems to be harmonizing all the best qualities of Nero dAvola. The impeccable red fruits express the typicality of the grape type giving a fresh balsamic herbs shade which certifies a superior pleasantness. Warm ,soft, elegant and rich with tones of tobacco, liquorice and spices which give it a balanced and deep complexity as in the word “father”. Recommended with dried herbs kid, cooked in a wood-fire oven.
