Donnafugata
Floramundi Cerasuolo di Vittoria
Vittoria, Sicily, Italy
This wine is medium tinted in a violet hue. It sports a nose of raspberry, but the fruit is just about covered up by a savory blanket. There is a strong earthy element to the aroma package, and even a bit of barnyard funk. The palate is quite dark - black raspberry, blackberry, bramble - with an extremely savory aspect. It is a very tasty wine, the acidity is dead-on perfect, and the tannins are firm, so it will pair well with your meaty dishes or pizza.

As expected from previous Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCGs this has the cherry earthy notes with savoury tannins - a hint of black pepper. This has a 70/30 blend of Nero d’Avola and Frappato. Can be as low as 50/50 and still satisfy DOCG requirements. Cerasa is Cherry in Sicilian.

Light and floral, nice acidity and thin tannin, medium long finish.

Feb 5th, 2022Fragrant & floral with dusty cherries, crushed brick dust & clay, a pinch of spice, a whiff of wet moss.
Quite light on the palate yet with presence - juicy, with fine dusty tannins and a savoury, earthy character.
Pure & highly drinkable, only a slightly bitter, medicinal note towards the finish spoils the joy a bit.

ベリー系の香り少々、軽い酸味があるが口当たり丸く甘みあり、タンニンは軽く飲みやすい
