Really nice. Blackberry black Cherry nose with light vanilla coconut oak and butter nose follows through to palate with med+ intensity on palate and balancing acidity and tannin. Great balance, great value.

Red and black cherry on the nose with a slightly funky forest floor note. More complex and slightly bigger than usual for a nero d'avola. Fruit forward with black cherry and a touch of black plum on the palate. A straight forward fruity approach, with medium acidity and low tannins. The interesting aspect here is the soft, round texture. Mouth-filling for a lighter wine. Drinks like a good Oregon pinot noir on steroids!

Vino abbastanza semplice anche se ben confezionato. Taglio moderno, vinificazione precisa e pulita, leggero eccesso di legno nuovo. Nero d'Avola, buono ma un po' anni '90. Prezzo corretto (8,5 euro)

Peppery. Easily drinkable. Not much of a nose. Nice finish.

Enjoyed at TIQA, Portland, ME. Cherry, strawberry, a touch of smoke up front. Tannins build midpalate and soften on the finish with crushed rock
