Every time I drink one of these bottles I kick myself for not buying more (even though I buy it by the half-case). Basically my favorite Nero d’Avola in the world. With age it shows leather and dried flowers, raisins and dried cherries and wonderful chalky mineralogy. Great acidity and powdery ethereal tannins.

Meaty, leathery, berry herbs and a touch of acidophilus. Very tasty.

Extraordinary sophistication. I could bathe in this and drink my way out for a week. It would be great for the skin as well.
