Online Review: The wine label describes this wine as "Nero D'Avola is Sicily's greatest indigenous grape. This is a medium-bodied wine with juicy, cherry and floral aromas and spice on the palate and a firm structure."
My Review: This wine smelled subtly of fruit and soft berry and cherry flavors. It had a slightly bitter aftertaste, and a dry mouthfeel with almost a burning sensation. I really wanted to like this wine, because it was from Sicily, where many of my ancestors are from as well, but I really could not bring myself to enjoy it.
