Valle Dell’Acate, Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG (Sicily, Italy) 2018

Sep 14, 2023

By Vince Simmon

 The name Cerasuolo refers to the cherry-like qualities that this appellation is known to produce.  This wine shows a mix of sweet and tart red cherry, cranberry, and pomegranate fruit notes supported by herbal, mineral, and earthy undertones.  Even with this complexity of flavors, the structure remains bright and lively with great acidity and balanced tannins.  Located in Sicily’s south-west coast, Valle Dell’Acate focuses on vineyards with biodiversity and classically styled wines.
