Only a few thousand bottles of FARO D.O.C. BONAVITA are produced: this deep, ruby red wine, in time, develops burgundy highlights.
It is medium full-bodied and tannic. Its characteristic wine fragrance recalls red ripe fruit, cherries in particular, with light spicy notes.
It perfectly agrees with hearty first dishes, barbacued red meat, but also with “pescestocco a ghiotta” and “sarde a beccafico”, typical sea-food dishes, and with “maiorchino cheese” and “the Nebrodi mountain black pig”, that all belong to the Sicilian gastronomy.
Bottle size 0.75 L.
