Donnafugata, Sicilia (Sicily, Italy) Nero d’Avola 2015

Aug 31, 2016

By Rich Cook

The black devil shows its fun and fruity side in this quick release bottling from Donnafugata.  Blueberry, wild blackberry and flower aromas are punchy and inviting, and the palate is dry with full throttle fruit and oak spice.  There’s some structure here that requires something meaty as an accompaniment — burgers or steaks will do just fine.
