Strong, bright ruby red. This one hundred percent Nero d'Avola is a captivating wine with its rich, fruity-spicy aroma of blackcurrants, cherries, undergrowth, liquorice and dark chocolate. The soft but firm, warm taste of ripe berry fruit, fine spice and the noble tannin inspire us very much. SUPERIORE.DE

"Elegantly shining ruby red. On the nose of blood oranges, rose hips, sealing wax and wild strawberries. Precise, fresh and clear on the palate, spans the tongue with plenty of juice and fruit, balanced on the finish with a slight saltiness." Falstaff

"A finely knit red, with silky tannins defining the flavors of pureed raspberry, crushed black cherry, pretty dried thyme and licorice notes, showing a subtle, minerally tang of iron. Medium- to full-bodied and elegant, with a lingering finish of spice box and graphite." Wine Spectator

"The 2017 Nero d'Avola Santa Cecilia explodes from the glass with masses of crushed stone, blackberries, cherries, wild herbs and hints of brown sugar. This is silky in texture with depths of sapid dark fruits complemented by sweet spice and pretty violet florals that form toward the close. The power of the warm southern coast comes through as the 2017 traverses richness with a beautiful acid-driven lift. It tapers off long to mineral-tinged wild berries framed by subtle tannins." Vinous

"Plenty of iodine and volcanic ash on the nose with preserved lemon and dried cranberries. It's both juicy and mineral on the palate with a medium body and silky tannins. Distinct ash and olive stones at the finish." James Suckling
