Poggio Graffetta
Nero D'Avola
Wow is this wine funky! Tastes and smells just like barnyard manure. Does not taste any better on the 2nd night unfortunately

Aug 30th, 2023The wine is very dark - almost no light gets through when held to a lamp. Aromas of dark fruit and the subtle sense of earth make for an underplayed nose. On the palate, plums and blackberries meet minerals and black olives for a game of "sweet or savory." The match is a draw. The tannins are temperate and the acidity makes the mouth water.

Chilled and left out for a while before drinking, super juicy and tart.

May 29th, 2021Surprise! What a treat. Beautiful rosy color and bright red fruit aroma. But also some leather which drives it across the palate with soft acid and tannins. I could sip this on my patio in Tuscany all day long.
