Castelmedio Terre Siciliane Nerello Mascalese
Sicily, Italy
McCarthy & Schiering, $15
Tart concentrated red fruit on the nose. Intense red fruit, beyond jammy and more like prune/dried cranberry. Touch of sweetness, good acidity, any more and it would be too acidic. The thick fruitiness almost gives a cough syrup vibe but isn't unpleasant. Maybe a little one dimensional but I quite liked it very drinkable and it was very unique.
