This boutique winery in central Sicily benefits from extreme isolation that has helped it nurture its own clone of Nero d’Avola. Oak tones and vanilla come in the foreground of cherry, blueberry and leather. The wine is balanced and soft with bright freshness on the close.

Feudo Montoni 2009 Vrucara Nero d'Avola (Sicilia)
- $45
Vrucara is one of the nicest expressions of Nero d’Avola. It bears a deep, dark color and intense aromas of black cherry, blackberry jam, leather and spice. The fruit shows the Sicilian sunshine in an elegant way, without feeling heavy or too sweet, and that’s what sets this wine apart.
