Cerasuolo di Vittoria Classico Frappato Nero d'Avola 2021

Almost port-like nose of dried plums or cherries, a little funky and earthy on the palate, some leather and horse blanket mixed with the dried cherry and a medium tannin and pretty bright for a red. Medium body and long finish. Deep garnet hue and was still good chilled. — a month ago

Suber Nero d'Avola Blend 2019

The ‘19 of this wine is quite good. Vibrant dark ruby color. The nose seems quite youthful, giving off scents of spiced, smoky minerality along with breast, yeasty notes. There also crisp mountain berry, cherry fruit. A big heck of fruit initially, but in a tight, zingy frame that has surprisingly crisp acids and a skein of tightly wound, very fine-grained tannins. The mouthfeel almost reminds me of a young Saint-Joseph from the Northern Rhone, though the flavors are different. Distinctive! — a month ago

Pithos Rosso Vittoria Nero d'Avola Frappato 2020

Popped in poured; no formal notes. The 2020 Pithos Rosso is, to my palate, a lovely Sicilian alternative to Beaujolais. Delicious, refreshingly fruity and just a touch wild. Sufficient structure to provide enjoyment for the near term, but I would just as well drink now. I really enjoy these wines.  — 2 months ago
