Cerasuolo di Vittoria Nero d'Avola-Frappato Blend
One of the darker, more extracted Cerasuolo di Vittorias I’ve had. Clearly the Nero d’Avola holding sway. Nose has leather, turned soil, dark berry juice, crushed rock. A bit brighter in the mouth than the nose suggests, with rich fruit buoyed by pretty good acids. Lots of fine-grained tannin. Pretty good.
