The 2020 Feudo Montoni, Nero d'Avola, Lagnusa was a Merchant's Pick

Sicilian Stunner • Buy by the case without hesitation!

April 05, 2023

Feudo Montoni has become our fastest-selling Italian red in five short years, with over 6,000 bottles sold.

It is an EWM Best Seller for its value and versatility.   

We've said it before, and we'll say it again:  In a few years, you will look back and say, "I remember when this wine was only 20 bucks!"   

At 600 feet above sea level, this stunning Sicilian red is elegant and refined - not jammy like many of the lowland Nero d'Avolas made today.

Complex aromas of fruit and spice are in harmony with an intoxicating hint of cinnamon on the backend.  This impeccable Sicilian red has notes of menthol and fresh dark cherry on the palate. Strawberry, fig, and dried plum are balanced by a dash of spice.  Seeing no oak, this wine is pure and delicious!

The topography of the vineyards is a virtual sanctuary surrounded by miles of wheat fields, which preserves the integrity of the organic vines. For that reason, many producers in the region have asked the winery for cuttings to use in their vineyards!

​​​​​​​We love this wine and can’t get enough!

Versatile and loaded with flavor, Feudo Montoni is perfect for Tuesday nights with a wedge of hard cheese, Wednesdays with a slice of homemade pizza, or Saturdays with a sliver of eggplant lasagna. ​​​​​​​ Or, simply dip with your favorite olive oil and crusty bread combination.

An ethereal red, it will command a higher price in the years to come.  

Until then...

Purchase without hesitation by the case(s)!

Enjoy!

Our #1 Selling Everyday Italian Red • A Best Seller!

“Lagnusa finishes remarkably fresh yet long, leaving the mouth watering.”

Vinous • 92 / 100

"In a cloud of crushed violet candies, sugar-dusted currants and hints of sage evolve, making the 2020 Nero d’Avola Lagnusa a total aromatic pleasure. Soft-textured and round, this impresses further with ripe red and blue-toned fruits, complemented by sweet spice over a core of vibrant acidity. The Lagnusa finishes remarkably fresh yet long, leaving the mouth watering while still resonating on hints of blackberry and a bitter twang of sour citrus."
