    November 24, 2023 - Tatsächlich spannend. Im Glas hellrot. Inn der Nase kommt zuerst rote Frucht, fast süß. Am Gaumen dann aber viel Säure, Frucht, absolut trocken. Im Hintergrund erdige Töne, stärker werdend. Spannend.

    Zweites Glas. Frucht und Erde sind fast weg. Verbranntes Streichholz! Wo kommt das denn her??

    Nächster Tag. Hat leider etwas nachgelassen, das könnte aber auch am scharfen Essen liegen. Schmeckt heute wie ein Pinot Noir. Leicht trüb im Glas.

    January 16, 2023 - Many users of this site will be familiar with complaints about the generic quality of so much modern red wine -- full-bodied, low acid, dark-fruited, high alcohol, could be from anywhere. But I wonder if the wines that are made in reaction to this trend -- light-bodied, low alcohol, red fruit, high acid, some funkiness -- aren't also potentially generic. I should say I liked this wine -- I appreciated the relatively low alcohol (12%) and the refreshing acidity, and I found myself drinking it much more quickly than I usually drink red wines. But I would have a hard time identifying it as particularly Sicilian or specifically Nero d'Avola (though this may just reflect my ignorance). As I suggested above, this seemed like a wine that is more of its time than of its place, more like post-modern reds from Navarra or Mendocino or Jura than like a wine from Sicily.

    September 30, 2022 - PnP fersk nese med osp VA , Lys frukt med tyttebær. Fast og frisk avsluttning som sitter lenge. VA blåser bort etter kort tid. Parfymert fin nese med lette krydder. Positiv overraskelse. Hagebær og furu. Absint. 1 dag i flaske: klar fast og fin som i går. Blåbær, krekling. Justert opp til 88

    August 10, 2022 - Cherry, lots of juicy fruit. cedar cigar box, minerality, tannins are not too grippy. Little bit of wet asphalt, wet stone on the nose. Very nice wine for pasta or sharp cheese. Weight is a little light. Probably could age 5-10 years, but drinking OK now as well.

    June 20, 2022 - Bright red color wine with light tannin. Grape juice notes with some residual sugar notes and some juicy notes. Easy drinking and more modern than I had anticipated.
