Versione "gentile ed elegante" di Nero d'Avola. In questo vino non troviamo infatti la potenza alla quale ci hanno abituati certi produttori siciliani, e già l'aspetto tendenzialmente trasparente fa pensare a un vino "minore".
Però il naso è pieno di eleganza di piccoli frutti di bosco e fine speziatura, e in bocca manifesta una bella ampiezza gustativa e una buona struttura, tuttavia con tannini non aggressivi e morbidi. Piacevole e buona corrispondenza nel finale dove insistino i piccoli frutti di bosco.
