Lake Arancio, with its crystal-clear water, creates a perfect microclimate for viticulture. The vines are south\/south-west facing at an altitude of 350 metres above sea level. Soils are predominantly limestone with a small percentage of clay and sand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eThe Nero d'Avola grapes were destemmed and crushed on arrival at the winery, before fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks at 25°C for 10-12 days. Gentle, regular pump overs occurred every four hours during fermentation. The wine was lightly pressed and remained in stainless-steel tanks until fining and bottling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVigneti Zabù, in southern Sicily, is part of the Fantini group, founded by Valentino Sciotti in 1994 to produce top-quality wine from southern Italy. In 2005, Valentino and his and Sicilian winemaker Giuseppe Alfano Burruano planted their own vineyards on the hills around Lake Arancio, in Sambuca di Sicilia. Here, the untouched landscape boasts many ancient vineyards and proximity to the lake creates a perfect microclimate for grape growing. Their vines are planted at 400 metres above sea level on clay soils with good water retention capacity, which helps sustain the vines through Sicily’s hot summers. Today, these vines continue to flourish, lending themselves to attractive, drinkable wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64591991210361,"sku":"202123624","price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/VignetiZabuNerod_Avola.png?v=1789552000","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/vigneti-zabu-nero-davola-2024","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
