Carricante, Nerello Mascalese
Top Notes For
This Nerello Mascalese with a dash of Carricante shows a bouquet of peaches in cream offset by citrus-tinged florals and smoky minerals, then opens to reveal silky richness, leaning toward the savory spectrum, teeming with brisk acids and a hint of spice. A balanced beauty with depths to spare. $20.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, May 2020)
