2024 is shaping up in our tastings to be a banner year in Sicily, which is a welcome change from the challenges of 2023. The nose is excellent with a core of pomegranate, cocoa nib, cranberries, amaro-like bitter orange, dried cherry, black pepper, and a beguiling volcanic minerality. The palate is just shy of moderate in weight with a mix of amaro like spices balanced by a mix of red and black fruits. - D&M TASTING NOTES (MK, 12/2025)
CRITICAL ACCLAIM:
"One of the most consistent and affordable reds coming out of Italy.” – ERIC GUIDO, VINOUS MEDIA
