On the palate this has quite good density and grippy tannin , balanced acidity , darker ripe fruits. Reasonable length . Quite polished and modern in style .

Passopisciaro

Passopisciaro Sicilia Nerello Mascalese 2012

A big austere whiff of cherry leather with little accents of mushroom, red roses, and spruce.

Etna core; sour, saline, sun and tannins big as the ABV of almost 16%.

Pintia Toro Tempranillo 2019

Toro: one of the oldest and strongest expressions of Tempranillo is tamed by the House of Vega Sicilia. Pintia preserves the rustic and robust nature of the DO in an elegant way. Aromas and flavors of dark fruit, violets, dark chocolate, coffee and spice. Full bodied, high alcohol and fine grain tannins with a strong finish are sure to entice. — 3 months ago
