Opaque with a deep ruby core and blood red rim. Med intensity and complexity on the nose showing meat, leather, black pepper, stewed date and plum, and very ripe strawberry and huckleberry. The body was full on the palate with med + tannin, high abv, and med - acid leaving the structure a touch flabby. Med complexity showing some ripe fruit, bitterness, and earthy and medicinal notes. Balance was off and the length was driven by animal notes. Tasty and rustic though. #savino #nerodiavola #siciliadoc #sicily #italy #ctbucklinwine

E’ il mio favarito certamente. Ha un fumo bello e il gusto delicioso. Nero berry, unpo dolce ma non e’ come botteglie americane. Non posso fermare bere, magari che possi avere con il prezzo sotto 20 (ma e’ impossibile pur troppo, so che e’ 40).

Terrific Nero D'Avola. Perfect balance of sweet and tart. Strawberries, red currants, tart cherries, coffee grinds, and a hint of baked sweet potato and nutmeg. Great viscosity: clean, refreshing, glides off the tongue. Medium bodied. Light tannins.

Bigger than I'd thought it would be but it just improves the longer it is open. Delicious
