Castellani Nero D'Avola - Merlot 2012
Sicily, ItalyFrom organically grown grapes and native yeast 550m high in west Sicily comes this juicy, plum and plump red. Dusty cassis, wild blackberries, plum and black cherries, with ample juicy currant acidity and a light grip to the tannins. The touch of bitter cocoa and earthy spice on the finish make this medium bodied red a natural for simple tomato-based pastas or salumi-decked Neapolitan pizza.Tasted: 12 December 2014Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $14.00 | 750ml | speculative listing |
