Vino Lauria Nerello Mascalese 2018

Sicily, ItalyVito Lauria is a Sicilian local. After studying winemaking in Friuli, he returned home in 2005 to take over his family's winery in the west of Sicily, renovating the vineyards, focusing on organic viticulture. He focuses on local varieties, like nerello mascalese. This is sourced from Sambuca di Sicilia, this sees time in stainless only. Fragrant and bright with wild raspberries, cherries, scrubby resinous herbs, this lighter red streams along the slender palate to a herbal, saline finish. Acidity is lofted, and tannins are light and gently sticky, reflective of the Mediterranean sunshine. Very moreish.Tasted: 30 March 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
