    Zisola is the Tuscan dream of the Mazzei family in the south of Sicily. The winery's bestseller is made from 100% Nero d'Avola from traditional Alberello vines near Noto, where chalky soils and proximity to the sea balance the natural exuberance of this indigenous grape variety with freshness and elegance. The Marchesi Mazzei, one of Italy's most historic winegrowing families with over 600 years of tradition, have been continuing their Sicilian project since 2003. 24 hectares of vineyards surround the historic bagli of the 50-hectare tenuta with a view of the baroque UNESCO World Heritage Site of Noto. Hand-picked and fermented for 14-16 days at 26-28°C, the wine matures for 10 months in French oak barrels (33% new).

    Light ruby red in colour, aromas of wild berries and orange peel. Structured on the palate with well-integrated tannins, juicy and fruity with a taut, grippy final. A Nero d'Avola with a new style - the successful synthesis of Tuscan winemaking expertise and Sicilian terroir authenticity. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Bright, medium ruby red with a brightening rim. Intense nose of juicy black cherry, plum, undergrowth, followed by Mediterranean herbs and cold smoke. Fresh attack with crisp fruit on tightly woven tannins, persistent." Falstaff

    "The 2022 Zisola smells of a pretty mix of dusty rose, carnation and wild strawberry. The style is juicy and bright, with pure wild berry fruit and a gentle hint of blood orange towards the end. It finishes with admirable length and youthful tension, leaving grippy tannins that frame the experience nicely without slowing its momentum." Vinous

    "This vintage shows a careful interpretation of the grape, without the excessive heaviness or characteristic black olive flavours that sometimes accompany the varietal. Instead, this beautiful wine offers brightness, medium texture and flavours of cherries, blackcurrants and toasted almonds. This uncomplicated wine takes a big step towards accessibility and drinkability." Wine Advocate
