Sicily, Italy
Red fruit, volcanic minerality, light to medium bodied, fresh acidity, clean fruit-driven finish.

Nerello time. Bright red berry fruit, herbal notes and expected firm mineral structure. Perhaps from newer vines. Hits all the notes but doesn't have the depth I find in my faves...

Aug 12th, 2013It's rather light. Almost like a Pinot, but it has backbone. Don't overpower this with sauce, I'm thinking a nice mushroom risotto. :)

Soft, balanced, leather, cherry, a little smoky quality. Looks light and past its prime, but it is definitely not! Wish I had another.

Jul 28th, 2015Love nerello mascalese. Cherry - black & red, tea & slight dirt/iron. Good acid. Slovenian oak provides some clove spice and med tannic profile.
