La Bacca Nerello Mascalese

Product Details

Nerello Mascalese is generally regarded as Sicily's finest red variety, and is responsible for many of its top wines, from Etna in particular. This is a great introduction to the grape - a vibrant, youthful red with bags of cherry fruit (hence the label) in a juicier, less structured style than most Sicilian reds.  The Nerello Mascalese was sourced from a long-standing partner of Adria Vini in western Sicily and was vinified in stainless steel. Great with pork wrapped in prosciutto, sausages, and tomato-based pasta dishes.

Tasting Notes

Bright aromas of redcurrants and cherry. The palate is soft and juicy with ripe plum, red berry and cherry flavours, gentle tannins, and fresh acidity on the finish.
