This is my favorite Winery. And this is my favorite wine from my favorite Winery. As Cerasuolo di Vittoria is Sicily's only docg it's apparent why so. The dark complex fruits of cherry and plum in the frappatto balance and harmonize perfectly with the tobacco, smoke and clay mineral of the nero d'avolo. The ratio was perfect as well. It's a big wine so it gives you the robustness and the impact of a masculine wine. However the complexity and subtlety is not overshadowed by the robustness. All too often I see in central Italian wines the favoring of one over the other. For instance Chianti gives you a big hit and is very dry and very big but has no complexity. This offers The Best of Both Worlds it is close to a perfect wine.

This Wine I intend to buy by the case on that one along with many of their other wines including nero di Lupo & pithos rosso — 9 years ago

Great acid! This isn't my type of wine but I found it a really great example of a Tuscan. Again, the acid was perfectly balanced which is rare. — 10 years ago

Superb - from first taste to finish. Subtle berry and hint of oak rounded with a warm flourish. Thank you Jay Lupo!

1999 vintage. At Boca di Lupo in Soho. Medium ruby hue. Very expressive nose of blackberry, black plum and smokey bacon, leather tan and earth. The wine is developing nicely. On the palate, there's high acidity, medium alcohol, medium plus body and medium plus crunchy tannins. The finish is long. There's full concentration on this wine - flavours similar to the aromas on the nose. An excellent example of Clape's Cornas. Drink now until 2026+ — 10 years ago

2011. A little young, but it's opening up beautifully as I drink it. -- trying a new bottle 2 days later -- In retrospect this is much much nicer than the Cos Nero Di Lupo I also had this evening. Smooth tannins on the mid pallet and the earthy aftertones make this an excellent wine. I'm editing my 9.0 rating and upping it to 9.2. — 9 years ago
