Turi Nero d'Avola Salvatore Marino 2022
Nero d'Avola | Italy
A 5th generation winemaker, but the first in his family to produce his own wine, Salvatore Marino strives to maintain the equilibrium of biodiversity in the vineyard, working entirely by hand, with green manure as the only additive in the vineyard. Although he owns 5.5 hectares of total land, he only has 1.5 hectares under vine—a way of attempting to maintain biodiversity.
Organic farming, with only bush-trained vines on his property, "in the tradition of his ancestors." This Nero d'Avola is a more seaside version than most, with notes of black fruit, iodine, cherry, and kalamata olive, but only medium-weight, with low tannin.
