Red fruit - cherries, plums, cranberries - not too heavy. Sicily’s first and only DOCG wine. I like it. I imagine this being good with some sfincione or grilled swordfish.

2015 vintage is 60% Nero d’Avola, 40% Frappato. Med body, very dry with med plus tannin, very juicy with tart raspberry, and sour cherry. Hint of metallic and leather on the nose. Very earthy and rustic.

Smoke, tar, earth, leather to start followed by a slightly sweet cranberry finish. I do not believe in terroir, but this wine expresses the earthiness of Sicily. The nose is smoke and leather. This wine is so expressive and underrated here. Just the right age now and ready to drink out of the bottle. Great for steak but still good with my pizza.

Mar 25th, 2023A slightly pale ruby color in the glass with thin edges and nice legs. These fruit aromas are really nice with some highly expressive dark cherry and strawberry. There’s some lovely funk going down too. Just a bit of barnyard with plenty of new leather and pepper. There’s an herbal essence that is so nice.
These COS wines are not interchangeable but man are they all so good. Doesn’t really matter which one you pick, you’ll enjoy it. Nicely balanced with a terrific combination of rusticity and elegance. Needs plenty of air but after that this is smooth and pure deliciousness. Earth and leather on the palate with sufficient fruit and cigar box. Grab any and all COS wines you can. They’re fantastic.

Outstanding. Balanced, well defined nose with raspberry, floral notes and earth. Fresh, spicy on palate. At Il Capriccio over Thanksgiving.
