Nose: a bit muted. Black cherries, vanilla, mild dirty sock aroma that blew off in short order.
Palate: concentrated fruit flavors, plums and black cherry. Big black pepper note, mushrooms, olives, and vanilla. Medium+ and peppery finish, medium-, smooth tannin, nice medium acidity, medium+ body. The wine tastes a bit jammy, as if the fruit was slightly overripe.

Wanted to try a Sicilian wine tonight. This Nero d'Avola I snatched up on Vivino fit the bill. Medium-deep ruby color. Black cherry, plum, black olive, menthol, and tobacco on the nose. Nice smooth tannins, medium acidity, and fairly balanced. Black fruits, pepper, black olives. Good but simple.

I was gifted a bottle of Morgante recently, and I drank it over a three night period. The Morgante is an easy drinking wine that exhibits little tannin, and moderate fruit. It is a bit one dimensional, but otherwise a very nice wine.

Moderate tannins with sweet red fruit notes. Very easy drinker but a bit one note
