Baglio del Cristo – Lu Patri 2018, Nero D’Avola – Sicilia IGT

The nose is fruity, elegant and offers freshness, limestone minerality and a certain richness/concentration. It reveals notes of pulpy/bright cherry, wild raspberry and small notes of olive tree associated with small touches of cassis as well as slight hints of liquorice, sweet spices and a discreet iodine hint. The palate is fruity and offers juiciness, freshness, a certain aromatic purity, a small fleshy richness, a good definition and gourmandize. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy raspberry, cherry and small notes of blackberry associated with touches of creamy violet plum, chocolate as well as a hint of olive, sage, liquorice and a discreet caramelized hint. Tannins are well-built and precise. A fine power on the finish/persistence.
