It impresses further with silky textures that envelop the palate in bright red and blue fruits, along with a refreshing wave of juicy acidity. Hints of spiced orange and inner florals linger long through the lightly structured finale." Vinous

The Carjcanti from our own vineyards on Etna deserves applause. Yellow, with green reflections. The bouquet reminds of apple, pineapple, brown butter and cinnamon, very aromatic on the palate, long. SUPERIORE.DE

"Sweet almond paste, young peaches, hints of flint and smoke waft up from the 2018 Carjcanti. Its soft textures soothe, as a savory display of herbal-tinged orchard fruits and salty minerals washes across the palate. There's a lovely cut of acidity here as this finishes with youthful tension, revealing hints of hazelnut and inner florals." Vinous

"Lots of dried pineapple and chalky minerals on the nose, following through to a full, round and silky palate. Then, a tight, focused bead of mineral acidity kicks, which could take you by surprise if you're not familiar with this grape. There's a fresh, young feel to this. The journey has just begun." James Suckling

Deep ruby red. Intense scent of raspberry, red cherry, violets and spices.

In the never-ending finish, Nerobaronj shows itself vibrant and with distinctive tannin, which gives additional emphasis. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2017 NeroBaronj seduces with its zesty display of crushed cherries, sweet exotic spices and dried roses. This is soft and round in feel, offset by bright acids and tart wild berry fruits, which creates a sweet and sour impression toward the close. Energy remains high, even as chalky mineral notes and wild herbs come forward; yet the end note here is, without a doubt, a lasting echo of vivid citrus-tinged blackberry. The NeroBaronj, a varietal Nero d'Avola, is a crowd-pleaser." Vinous

"Dark depths of rich black fruit, stone dust, sage, lavender and brown spice make up the bouquet of the 2017 NeroMaccarj. This balances sultry sex appeal with elegance from start to finish. Its textures are silky-smooth, complemented by ripe plums and currants, yet with a building salty tension as acids and minerals mix with hints of sour citrus.

Give this enticing Nero d'Avola another year or two of cellaring for the best results." Vinous

"Luminous red. Precise, brooding aromas of ripe red cherry, flint, orange rind, cinnamon, lavender and violet, complicated by iodine and earth. Silky and sappy with refined but very concentrated extract, this smothers the taste buds but stays vibrant and not at all heavy, offering lovely definition and lift to the red cherry, raspberry, floral and mineral flavors. Finishes extremely deep and long, with ultra-suave tannins, mesmerizing inner-mouth perfume and extreme refinement; very Barolo-like. A lovely multilayered wine showcasing the elegant side of Nero d’Avola that very few producers ever manage to showcase." Vinous
