WineDiva's Review

Sicily's indigenous Nero d'Avola goes into this mineral-driven red. Notes of saline and earth, savoury spice and black fruits, dark chocolate shavings and grilled peppers. The palate is fresh, there's plenty of juicy dark fruit, spice and cocoa with similar saline flavours in the mouth. The tannins are fine but firm, the finish shows good persistence.
Pair with: heary pasta dishes, grilled fish, spicy salami pizza.
