Great lift and freshness for a cerasuolo despite showing the Sicilian ripeness. Candied red and purple fruit, prune plum, and a distinct but pleasant hint of burnt caramel on the nose. Judicious sweetness on the finish. Fabulous qpr.

Very reduced. Should have decanted for a few hours but my thirst got the better of me.

Tart black cherry, stewed plum, dried resinous herb, sandalwood, spice, damp earth and mineral a bit chunky in a good way.

Best wine I have had at this price in a long time. Bright and dark fruit. Virtually no tannin. And either acid or a bit of effervescence that gives it additional character.
