Duca di Salaparuta Suor Marchesa Passo delle Mule 2011
Nero d'Avola | Italy
Deep, intense ruby red. Pervasive, fruity bouquet of morello cherries and raspberries, complex with well-balanced scents of spices and vanilla. Rich, full, and velvety flavor, full-bodied and persistent with typical austere, yet pleasant tannins. Excellent served with red-meat dishes and medium-aged cheeses.
A single varietal wine produced from Nero d'Avola grapes, first produced on the sinuous and well-ventilated hills of the Suor Marchesa estate, in the hinterland of the southern part of Sicily, where grapes reach full maturity under the late September sun. An embracing, complex and well-structured wine, it is matured in barriques at first and then aged at length in bottles.
