Alessandro di Camporeale Donnatà Nero d'Avola Sicilia DOC

A True Expression of Sicilian Terroir

Donnatà is the quintessential expression of Nero d’Avola, Sicily’s most iconic black-berried grape. Crafted by the Alessandro family in the heart of the Camporeale hills, this wine is a testament to the estate's commitment to organic farming and sustainable viticulture. Situated at an altitude of 400 to 600 meters above sea level, the vineyards benefit from significant day-night temperature variations, which preserve the grapes' natural freshness and aromatic precision.

The wine presents a deep ruby color with lively, bright reflections. On the nose, it reveals a complex and inviting aromatic profile, characterized by fragrant notes of ripe blackberry, black cherry, and plum, elegantly intertwined with hints of Mediterranean scrub, nutmeg, tobacco, and a subtle touch of dark chocolate. On the palate, Donnatà is defined by its agile and dynamic structure, offering a linear, polished mouthfeel with well-integrated tannins and a persistent, balanced finish.

Winemaking Excellence

At Alessandro di Camporeale, modern technology is used to support a respectful, low-intervention winemaking philosophy. The grapes are harvested and processed with meticulous care to ensure the purity of the fruit. Fermentation and maceration take place in stainless steel tanks for approximately 12 days at a controlled temperature between 23–26 °C. This approach ensures that the wine maintains its varietal clarity, freshness, and vibrant character, avoiding the heavy influence of oak to allow the true essence of the Sicilian landscape to shine through.
