Cru Sorante


WINERY TENUTA GORGHI TONDI
REGION Sicilia

Sorante is music and elegance as the name it bears. In heraldry, it identifies "a bird that flies off", an image perfectly suited to our 100% Nero d'Avola, which grows in perfect symbiosis with the fauna of the WWF oasis Lago Preola and Gorghi Tondi. The most mature and elegant expression of our award-winning Nero d'Avola, full-bodied and intense, acclaimed in prestigious national and international competitions.
