Country: Italy / Torreforte
Variety: Nero d’Avola Sicily & Sardinia
Winery: Tenuta Barone Nicolò La Lumia / Sicilia
This older vintage of Torreforte from Tenuta La Lumia opens with a slightly brownish hue and delivers aged aromas of tar, resin, drying mineral and powdered licorice. The wine tastes firm, solid and ends with gritty, texture tannins. It’s near its peak of drinkability: don’t wait to pour it.
