Plumbago is a genuine Sicilian gem. It greets the eye with a bright ruby red hue tinged with violet. The nose reveals spicy aromas—think liquorice and cloves—alongside vibrant red fruit and a subtle hint of vanilla. On the palate, it offers impressive density and structure, with firm tannins and abundant red berry flavours. The wine is fleshy and richly textured, finishing long and satisfying.

This exciting Sicilian wine pairs beautifully with red meats, pizza, and grilled dishes—an outstanding ambassador for the Nero d’Avola variety.
