Colosi, Nero d'Avola, Sicily 2008

Purple/red.

No vinturi - synthetic cork - baked earth/raspberry/brown spices/exotic fruit (mango?). Nice depth and lift.

Round and plush, with a well-hidden edge of acidity keeping everything in line. It must be the exotic yellow fruit character that reminds me of something from the south of France. Interesting, extremely tasty and cheap - just what the doctor ordered. Drink it over the next two to three years.

$16
