Tasting - Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola



Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola
Variety:  D'Avola
Region:  Sicily
Country:  Italy
Year:  2010
Price:  $8.95
Shop Review:  Very dark purple, with a reddish-violet edge, typical of this grape. Black plums, a hint of licorice and subtle spice, not overly complex but appealing. A big mouth full of juicy black fruit is well structured by tart acidity and soft but distinct tannins.
Personal Review:  Smells of banana and berries.  Bitter slightly, but also dry.  Tastes and smells very similar to a dark red from another week.
Food Paring:  Not tasted with food
