Opaque with a deep ruby core and blood red rim. Med intensity and complexity on the nose showing meat, leather, black pepper, stewed date and plum, and very ripe strawberry and huckleberry. The body was full on the palate with med + tannin, high abv, and med - acid leaving the structure a touch flabby. Med complexity showing some ripe fruit, bitterness, and earthy and medicinal notes. Balance was off and the length was driven by animal notes. Tasty and rustic though. #savino #nerodiavola #siciliadoc #sicily #italy #ctbucklinwine
