"The 2021 Vino Rosso N Contrada Valle is dark and rich in the glass, with a balsamic flourish that gives way to mentholated herbs and dried black cherries. This is soft and soothing on the palate with ripe wild berry fruits and zesty citrus tones under an air of violet inner florals. It leaves a staining of red plum and spice, tapering off lightly tannic and with a bitter tinge that puckers the cheeks. This varietal Nero d'Avola reveals unexpected depths and complexity."
