November 20, 2023 - Nose of bright red fruit with some green herbs and soil.
Palate quite simple, but grows on you as you go. -

June 30, 2023 - Age your Cerasuolo di Vittoria...said no one ever. Somehow this was fantastic at 6 years old; but I don't think the winemaker intended for it to be so.
Extremely intense aromas of sage and mediterranean scrub, smokey embers, smoked beef, dried strawberries and dried cramberries. The palate is more primary and mostly driven by the red fruits; though the meat is still there in the background. Intensity of aromas is high, intensity of flavors is closer to Medium +.
Medium bodied with medium - tannins and great acid. Considering what this is and when it was supposed to be drunk, the result is extraordinary. Great pairing with Tuna in Pesto sauce.1 person found this helpful Comment -

December 14, 2022 - Drinking very nicely. Notes of strawberry and vanilla. Certainly on the lighter side, but smooth finish and easy to drink.

July 21, 2022 - Clear medium crimson ruby - nero d’avola 60/ frappato 40 blend - nicely conceived - ready heady nose of wet earth, leather, and tobacco from the nero and strawraspberry from the frappato. Easy to like alone or with food as tannins are present enough to distinguish it as a wine and tart enough to clean palate. Nice wine especially when viewing through the qpr prism.

June 8, 2022 - I think this is excellent. One note mentioned burnt rubber, but I lean toward tobacco. Either way, medium-bodied red with good acidity and wonderful with tonight's spicy sausage and pasta.
