Delicious. With a big 1.5 kg t-bone grilled on a salt block (for 3 people, I'm not a complete pig), mmmmm. Not as floral and complex as a Barbaresco, but nice complexity and excellent finish. — 8 years ago

I thought bodega Sicilia was only in riveria del Douro but I was clearly wrong. Perfect pairing with sucking pig. — 10 years ago
The wine was $3 at grocery outlet. It is definitely cheap wine. It's a little fruity with citrus after thoughts :) the ethanol is definitely present. Back before I had the majority of this bottle I thought it was pretty strong. It's not the worst wine I've ever had, and for the price I'd call it quite fair. The label really tips the scale :) — 11 years ago
