Like Ryan.Tolusso this my first Nero D'Avola, as far as I know. He & Micklethepickle have good takes on this wine.
Clear, dark red in the glass. Fragrant, almost floral, nose of Dark Cherries and Raspberry. Medium-bodied, with Cherry and Blackberry on the palate, with some Bramble/Garriue and spices. Pleasant, fruity, not overly-extracted. Ample, yet smooth tannins (even smoother on Day #2) leaving a slight pucker. Pleasantly tart, clean Finish. Have repurchased.426 views
