Score: ✧✧✧✧❂ |
The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of purple red,
moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing and
refined aromas that start with hints of black cherry, plum and blackberry
followed by aromas of raspberry, blueberry, violet, vanilla, carob and pink
pepper. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic
attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The
finish is persistent with flavors of black cherry, plum and blackberry.
This Nero d'Avola ages in cask for 8-10 months followed by 12 months of
aging in bottle.
