Zisola Noto Rosso Red Blend

Notes of cherry, cranberry, black currant, vanilla and baking spices. Full-bodied, dry with high tannin and a long finish. Also was getting blackberry, green Bell Pepper and cigar ash on the palate.

Italian wine tasting with friends! These were my 3 wine selections from north to south:

🔹 Northern Italy: Tenuta Carretta ‘Bric Paradiso’ Roero Riserva 2015 (Piemonte - Nebbiolo)

🔹 Central Italy: Tiezzi Enzo ‘Poggio Cerrino’ Rosso Di Montalcino 2015 (Toscana - Sangiovese)

🔹 Southern Italy: Mazzei ‘Zisola’ Sicilia Noto Rosso 2014 (Sicilia - Nero D’Avola)

All of the were superb. All are highly recommendable. Cheers 🇮🇹🍷

Little expansion of my Sicilian wines. Reminded me of a Nebbiolo with some earthy, mineral tones. Medium tannins and a medium finish.

Under 30 dollars in Korea. What else?

Wonderful. Dried cherries, spices, great body and a smooth finish.

Perfect balance. Medium bodied. Cherries. Light spice. Mild vanilla. Smooth finish. My favorite Sicilian red so far on this Siracusa-Ragusa-Catania trip!

Dried cherries and pine? Eucalyptus? Something like that, I'm coming of a cold so it's hard to tell. Super concentrated flavors.
