Nero D’avola, 2022, Cantine Paolini, Sicily Orange Wines blackberry and cracked pepper flavoursThis wine is very modern in attitude so it avoids the 'dusty' tannins and 'jamminess' that can afflict the cheaper versions wines (caused by poor winemaking and not the grape's fault!) Lovely Mediterranean aromas of ripe berries and garrigue herbs are followed by flavours of sweet cassis, sloe and red cherry. Ripe, fine grained tannins give balance to the fruit so, yet again, this is another Italian red that hits top form with food.
