Duca di Salaparuta, Sicilia DOC (Sicily, Italy) Nero d’Avola “Duca Enrico” 2020 ($90)

Oct 23, 2024

Wine label

One of the best Nero d’Avolas I have tasted. It also has a Pinot Noir-like roundness of ripe black raspberry fruit, which is more than balanced by an assertive but not aggressive structure and acidity – a “little big wine,” perhaps. It is quite refreshing, and even though I poured it for a meal, I found myself sipping the remainders over the next two days.
