Very ripe raspberry and blueberry fruit flavours. Midway the minty spices kick accompanied by a smokey minerality. The acidity is surprisingly high, the tannins are present, but not too much and they could use 1 or 2 years more ageing easily. Beautiful wine, the home terroir expression of nero d'avola which is a lot more elegant than what Sicily usually delivers...

Drank at Brigantessa, earthy, a bit sharper than the 2012, enjoyed with southern Italian food, $57 on wine list, would drink again, smooth tannins.
