Tasting -- Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola


Name: Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola
Variety: Nero D'Avola
Region: Sicily
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $8.95

Winery Review: Very dark purple, with a reddish-violet edge, typical of this grape. Black plums, a hint of licorice and subtle spice, not overly complex but appealing. A big mouth full of juicy black fruit is well structured by tart acidity and soft but distinct tannins.

My Review: Deep blackberry and raspberry aromas. A hint of household cleaner on the nose too. A very dry deep taste of dark cherry flavors. This is a very dark and complex wine.

I did not eat while tasting this wine.
