Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, little
transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing and elegant aromas
which start with a pleasing hint of black pepper followed by aromas of
black cherry, raspberry, blueberry, plum and violet as well as hints of
licorice, vanilla and carob. In the mouth has good correspondence to the
nose, a slightly tannic attack however balanced by alcohol, good body and
intense flavors. The finish is persistent with pleasing flavors of black
cherry, plum and blueberry. A well made wine. This Nero d'Avola is aged in
cask.
