Beautiful bricking ruby from a bottle at the Planeta estate in Menfi in wonderful condition. Complex decomposing fruit along with earthy notes redolent on a bed of velvety tannins accompanied by enough acidity to keep everything lively and focused- redolent of a top flight Brunello.

Deep garnet colour. Prunes and chocolate on the nose. High acid, high tannins, chocolate, smoke, prunes and very little fruit. Great wine. Needs to be drunk now. Beatiful with a ribeye steak.

Pas pire mais over the hill un brin. Manque d'acidité mais beaucoup de concentration autour des arômes typiques du Nero d'Avola (cerises, épices, cuir, chocolat, etc.) Tannins presque tous fondus également, ce qui déséquilibre un peu le vino. Disons que je ne paierais pas de prémium pour voir ce vin vieillir, mais que l'expérience était quand même pas désagréable.

Good to drink to lighten the mood after bikes have been stolen. Full bodied, melow tannins, liquorice and earth flavors. Fantastic with ripe tomatoes and basil salad and a strong meat.

Nice wine with a lot of dark dried fruits (figs,dates...). It has a very good length but the harmony lacks! Needs more air!?
