{"product_id":"2024-orbis-nero-davola","title":"2024 Orbis Nero d'Avola","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you needed any more proof that McLaren Vale is the new home for Italian varieties, this is it. Sourced from the Orbis estate - one of the region's highest and coolest sites - this Nero d’Avola thrives in the free-draining sandy loam soils. It’s a variety that just makes sense here, loving the warm days and cool coastal nights that let it ripen fully while keeping that trademark freshness intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinemaker Verity takes a gentle approach to ensure the wine reflects the site rather than the cellar. The fruit was picked on flavour in early March, de-stemmed, and fermented with wild yeast in small open fermenters. She kept it on skins for just five days - short and sweet - to capture the vibrant blue fruit without pulling out too much heavy tannin. It then rested in a mix of seasoned and new French oak hogsheads for ten months, adding a little polish without masking the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is brooding but bright. The nose is loaded with black cherry, anise, dried herbs and a mix of blueberry and blackberry. On the palate, it shifts gear, revealing layers of ripe strawberry, plum, and a savoury hit of leather and spice. It is finely balanced with a juicy acid line and soft, lingering tannins. A perfect match for a lamb ragu or just a simple bowl of pasta with pork sausage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 points Trophy for Best Red Italian Variety Wine \u0026amp; Best Red Wine of Show\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- 2025 Australian Alternative Variety Wine Show\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Orbis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56142038466932,"sku":"dze1789958194030","price":21.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5613\/8100\/files\/2024-orbis-nero-davola_1.png?v=1789958198","url":"https:\/\/petcameramon.shop\/products\/2024-orbis-nero-davola","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
