1 person found it helpfulAug 19th, 2017I have a strong preference for Tuscan and northern Italian wines so I was a bit leery of this Sicilian #nerodiavola. Much of the impact is on the heady cassis aroma. With that sniff Iโm expecting a syrupy fruit bomb but thereโs a surprising balance of acidity and a touch of sour cherry that carries through the finish, mixed with some dark cocoa bitterness and firm tannins. I think itโs much better once itโs been opened for a day.
