Feudo Montoni Vigna Lagnusa Nero d'Avola 2023

Feudo Montoni Vigna Lagnusa Nero d’Avola 2023 is an organic Sicilian red that captures the grape’s character with elegance and finesse rather than sheer power. Grown at altitude in the hills around Cammarata, it combines ripe fruit, gentle spice and lively freshness with the distinctive sense of place that has defined Feudo Montoni for generations.

Tasting Notes
The wine has an intense ruby-red colour with subtle violet highlights. Its aromatic profile brings together expressive red and dark fruit with delicate spicy nuances, including a hint of cinnamon, while refreshing menthol notes add lift and complexity. On the palate, it is soft, savoury and elegantly structured, supported by well-integrated tannins and bright freshness. The balanced combination of fruit, spice and freshness makes it approachable now, while careful cellaring should allow it to develop further for up to around ten years.

Production
The vineyards are located on east-facing slopes near Cammarata, at approximately 600 metres above sea level. Vines are trained using both bush-vine and trellised systems and grow in clay and sandy soils, within a fully organic farming programme that follows the natural rhythms of the estate. After harvesting, the grapes undergo a long maceration in concrete vats to extract colour and polyphenols with precision. Malolactic fermentation also takes place in concrete, followed by 20 months of maturation in cement, four months in oak casks and a further four months of bottle ageing before release.

Food & Serving
Serve at around 18°C, ideally after decanting for approximately one hour to allow the wine’s aromas and texture to open. Its supple structure and refreshing character pair particularly well with grilled or roasted red meat, game and mature cheeses. It can also complement richly flavoured Sicilian dishes without overwhelming them.

Producer
Feudo Montoni has roots dating back to the Catalan-Aragonese period and maintains a deeply rooted connection to its land in the Sicilian countryside. The estate is fully committed to organic production and works with natural forces such as gravity, time and seasonal rhythms throughout the winemaking process. Its wines are recognised for expressing native Sicilian varieties with clarity, and the estate’s Vigna Lagnusa Nero d’Avola has received notable critical attention, including a 93-point Decanter rating for the 2022 vintage.
