FIORE DI NERO Rosé Wine IGP 75 CL

 FIORE DI NERO Rosé Wine

The name “FIORE DI NERO” comes from the “flower” (meaning the initial, delicate pressing) of Nero d’Avola. The resulting wine has a rosé colour with intense perfumes of fruit and flowers, particularly of cherry and rose. On the palate, it is distinguished by its freshness and the complexity of its fresh fruit flavour.
