  A touch of oxidation on the nose, and rather sickly sweet fruit on the palate. Not a great wine, but maybe OK for the price point. Could be a bum bottle.

  Slightly disappointing colour for a Nero D'Avola, easy to see through. Colosi's effort bears an intense and fruity nose of ripe morello cherries, plums and herbs. Palate also offers a lot of fruit that has quite some tendency towards the sweet side but never drifts off into blunt stickiness as it is accompanied by some well-balanced acidity as well as light and smoothed out tannins which unfortunately tend to get a bit mushy towards the finish. Overall a decent table wine that is undoubtedly quaffable and should work well with many simple dishes.

  Such a great QPR. So inexpensive and yet so good for the money. I drink Nero all the time and really like this one.

  A lot of fruit but not jammy. A great weekday wine and great expression of Sicilian wine.
