Unico Zelo Halcyon Days Nero

Unico Zelo Halcyon Days Nero 2022 is a bright, medium-bodied Nero d’Avola from the Riverland’s organically farmed Bassham vineyard in Barmera. It features juicy, plush red fruit flavors with peppery spice and a lively, juicy acidity that lifts the finish. The wine is hand-picked and wild fermented, aged seven days on skins, then matured in second-fill oak barrels and foudres, showcasing soft tannins and a refreshing vibrancy. It has been compared to a Cru Beaujolais style with a lively, approachable character that makes it excellent for casual drinking and pairs well with foods like charcuterie and pizza. This expression is praised for its minerality, bright acidity, and savory fruit, representing a delightful and accessible take on Nero d’Avola.
