60/30/10 - Cabernet Sauvignon; Nero d’Avola; and Syrah. For lovers of Big Reds. The most full bodied Red we have had in Sicily. Demands Food and Cellaring.

Jul 2nd, 2016Donnafugata is one of Sicily's top wineries and this is one of their top wines. It's a big blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and the island's
indigenous Nero d'Avola. The blend also contains an interesting grape called Tannat that is originally from the South West French region of Madiran but has taken hold in Uruguay in recent years. The 2011 vintage was awarded Tre Bicchieri from Gambero Rosso.

Tasty, easy pleasing Nero d'Avola. Cherries, sweet tannins, mild acidity.
