WINEMAKER NOTES:
#44 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2024
Ruby red in color. A complex perfume with notes of cherries, red plum, blackberry, cinnamon and clove that are in harmony with one another. Notes of menthol amplify the freshness of the taste. It is soft, velvety, sapid and laced with the right amount of delicate tannin on the palate.

TASTING NOTES:
-
The 2022 Nero d'Avola Lagnusa is perfumed with a fresh mix of wild berries and spices accentuated by hints of blood orange. It's soft-textured and lifted in feel with vibrant acidity and crisp wild berry fruit. The 2022 finishes energetic and pleasantly tart, puckering the cheeks while keeping the mouth watering for more.
- Vinous, 91 pts.
Lush and creamy in texture, with flavors of raspberry puree, dried cherry, star anise and violet gliding across the palate. Well-honed, succulent acidity keeps this fresh and focused, while a minerally underpinning of stone and smoke emerges to drive the lightly chewy finish. Drink now through 2029.
