Noto Nero d'Avola

Does Nero d'Avola proud! Savoury but generous. Plum & blackberry on the palate with solid tannins and structure.

Pretty solid given the price point

I am not sure about the nose on this one. Just was not pleasant. Maybe an off bottle. Lots of cherries and a bit of herbs on he palate. Sort of chewy and a bit more fruit forward than I would have thought. Like I said maybe an off bottle.

Absolute steal. Buy again.

Hot to trot, esp for $11!

Приятнейший цветочный аромат, на вкус не интересно.

Firm tannins, bursts of acidity, supple and balanced. A fruity and floral base that incorporates notes of salami, black peppercorns, and oregano. Distinctly Sicilian and a steal.

For me this is one of the best Nero d'Avolas. Unlike the many heavy oily oaky crowdpleasers, this one is a class of its own. It greeted me w dark berries and blackcurrents on the nose, followed by an elegant, lightly peppered presence on the palate, with subtle tannins. It's a feast to the eye, too, with a beautiful dark ruby color. Best of it - it pairs well with vitello tonnato, red meat, pasta, and can warm your heart all by itself on a dark winter evening.

Fresh, easy to drink. Need to be carafed. Maybe a bit young.

Tannins, full, and restrained yet elegant. Exactly what it should be, and perfect with Sicilian pasta dishes.
