Winery Review: Sicilia, Italy- This medium-bodied wine features black cherry and raspberry fruit in an easy-drinking style. Made from 100% Nero d'Avola grapes, the wine also offers some hints of Mediterranean herbs. Try it with lasagna or veal.
My Review: Despite the fact that this wine was served in a disposable plastic cup I could definitely detect strong components of black cherry, blackberry, and raspberry. This was a very balanced red wine, because it wasn't too acidic or dry. An easy wine for those that fear the strong tannic characteristics of a typical red wine. I bought this wine and am excited to try it again with a light tomato sauce and lightly herbed italian bread. Very great wine at a reasonable price.
