Territory and style of the wine

This Sicilia DOC Red is born in southwestern Sicily, in Tenuta Contessa Entellina, an area that well interprets the Mediterranean character of the island's red wine. The declared blend combines Nero d’Avola, Petit Verdot, Syrah, and other grapes, composing a broad and multifaceted profile. The manual harvest and careful selection of the grapes indicate a quality-oriented approach, while aging in new French oak barrels and subsequent resting in the bottle contribute to defining a round, deep, and refined style.

In the glass, it presents a full and enveloping character, with a broad bouquet that combines fruity sensations with balsamic and spicy notes. On the palate, One Thousand and One Nights 2017 shows softness, intensity, and a well-present structure, supported by balanced freshness and integrated tannins. The finish is long, elegant, and persistent, with a taste progression that enhances the complexity of the wine without weighing it down.

Recommended pairings

It is a wine that expresses itself best with flavorful and well-structured dishes. It pairs well with lamb rack, meat roasts, Rossini-style fillet, and rich preparations such as pappardelle with pork ragù. Its softness and aromatic depth also make it suitable for important second courses of Italian cuisine, where the succulent component and roundness of the dish find an ideal counterpart.

Serving temperature

Serve One Thousand and One Nights 2017 at 18°C to best appreciate its aromatic intensity, structure, and harmony. If the bottle has been stored at a cool temperature, it is advisable to open it a little in advance to favor the expression of the bouquet, especially in the large 3-liter format.
