Delia Nivolelli DOC
No strip issued. I'm still hunting a bottle.
Named for two rivers in the Marsala hinterland, this DOC covers the same warm coastal vineyards that feed Marsala and bulk Sicilia DOC. The wines are ripe and straightforward: Grillo with citrus, green herbs and a saline edge; Syrah and Nero d'Avola with jammy black fruit, soft tannin and warm alcohol. Almost every grower prefers the Sicilia DOC name, so Delia Nivolelli bottles are a rarity even in Trapani.
