This is a delicate, polished and graceful wine that paints one of the most attractive portraits yet of the Nero d’Avola grape. Although some have criticized the fact its alcohol has increased over the last few years (now 14.5%), I would argue that its power is well integrated within its multifaceted and well-composed whole.
