... Make that "Nero D'Avola / Syrah." Don't know the percentages.
Excellent QPR, in my opinion. Don't put a lot of stock in this, but I'd say mostly cherries and alcohol (14.5%) on the nose, and over-ripe fruits (figs and raisins) on the palate. This one needs at least 2 hours of breathing for the over-ripe fruits to start showing all they have to offer. My first tasting (at the wine store on the day of purchase) was a bottle opened 4 days prior, and it tasted great! One of the few in my history I'd buy by the case. 12.80 Euros. 89/91
