What a ridiculously enjoyable bottle. Leave it to the Italians to come up with something so irreverent and bloody good wine. A light, almost transparent shade of red. Long legs and a wide brim. The nose is so vivid and lovely. Berries and spice and berries and cedar and berries. Earthy funk, but just a tad, and floral accents.
75/25 Frappato/Nero d’Avola from Sicily. Organic and light and airy. Infinitely drinkable, this will go pretty quickly, I can guarantee that. And that’s what it’s here for. Not quiet contemplation, just fun. Very pure, very fruity and alive. Buy a few of these and open them whenever you’re in desperate need of a good time.

Someone else said bologna sandwiches and now I can’t unsmell that (in the best way possible).

Very light and juicy, cranberry-like with light floral notes. Simple and streamlined. Slightly watery.
