Disappointing
Specially in relation to the price
This is the first important label from donnafugata, first release dates back to the 80s i reckon
It falls short, it isn't bad,but i reckon this would be in a wine shop 180/200 dollars
It must be better

This 2015 is juicy and spicy. Good mouth-feel. Enjoyable in a hedonistic way.

Strikingly big and bold, this wine is a massive wad of flavor, tannin and refreshment that needs a substantial & meaty meal as an accompaniment. Love the roasted blackberry flavors saturated with steeped Pu-erh tea.

Beautiful wine, but a bit rich & oaky for me

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!

Eucalyptus for days! Rich, leathery notes and a solid acid spice. Can't wait to try this in 5 years.
