VALLE DELL'ACATE, CERASUOLO DI VITTORIA 2013

DESCRIPTION:"With so much attention focused on the Sicilian region of Mount Etna, the wines of Vittoria are often overlooked. Cerasuolo di Vittoria, the area’s leading wine, made about equally of nero d’Avola and frappato, is fresh and energetic, yet deceptively concentrated. Valle Dell’Acate may not make the best Cerasuolo of the region, but its wine is a great value, pure and lovely year after year. The ’13 is substantial yet lively, with deep flavors of flowers, red fruits and licorice." Eric Asimov, New York Times. January 12, 2017.
