Fondo Antico – Nenè 2019, Nero D’Avola – Sicilia IGT

The nose is fruity and offers a certain richness but in freshness/balance and a small concentration. It reveals notes of boysenberry, crushed small blue fruits and small notes of plum associated with a touch of crushed strawberry, a toasted touch as well as a subtle hint of local grove and vanilla. The palate is fruity and offers minerality, a juicy/acidulous frame, richness in controlled/straightness and a certain tension. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy blackberry, crushed cassis and small notes of pulpy strawberry associated with a touch of plum, plum blossoms as well as fine hints of sweet blond tobacco and a subtle hint of local grove. Tannins are well-built. A subtle chew on the finish.
