Hints of cassis, sour-sweet fruit and gentle tannins. A great effort from a winery that always never disappoints — 4 days ago

9.1

A captivating blend of crushed violets, lavender, blackberries and wet stone wafts up from the 2021 Saia. Cool-toned and lifted in feel, a potent core of ripe red and blue fruits provides a framework as juicy acidity adds freshness. An enjoyably bitter tinge of tangerine forms toward the close. Staining and long, the 2021 finishes off with a coating of fine tannins and a saturation of primary concentration that creates a slightly chewy sensation toward the close. This is a fantastic and energetic rendition of Saia, a varietal Nero d'Avola that I expect will age quite nicely. (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2024)

Really a mind expanding wine. Would never have guessed Aglianico or 2008 or 15%. Quite herby and earthy but with some core of fruit too - long finish with good acid. Lovely mouthfeel as well. And a great pairing with Marcella Hazan’s long cooked bolognese. — a year ago

9.1

Golden lemon color with aromas of stone and citrus fruits with floral herb notes. On the palate flavors of apple and citrus zest, with honeysuckle and savory notes. Medium+ finish, lively crisp acidity, ending with fruit and sweet herb floral character. Nice! — 2 months ago
