Kikè Sicilia Sauvignon Blanc Traminer Aromatico

Nice concentrated golden color. In the nose melon, ananas, mango, and tropical fruits. On the palate extremely aromatic with strong taste of ripe melon, peaches, candied fruits. Really nice balanced wine , soft tannins, high acidity and nice minerality. Amazing wine. Bought from Palermo 13,5€ — 2 years ago

Donnafugata

Mille e Una Notte Nero d'Avola 2016

A blend of mostly Nero d'Avola adding some Petit Verdot, Syrah and a few other grapes. Deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits, sweet notes and spicy scents. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black cherry, currant like, with notes of cacao, licorice and sweet spice, well balanced with acidity. Fine tannins, long finish, ending with fruit, tobacco and sweet earthy character. Very nice! — 2 years ago

Sallier de la Tour

La Monaca Monreale Syrah 2018

Brambly, blackberry, red fruit forward with some meatiness lurking behind, cinnamon, star anise, kicking acidity, long finish; a bit thinner than expected, but not in a detrimental way; a little hot. I mean, really long finish…unique, cool wine — 2 years ago

A spectacular mix of berries. Dark purple, great smells. I might give Palermo a slight edge. — 3 years ago
