Fedele Rosso IGP Terre Siciliane Organic
Nero d’Avola and a touch of Merlot and Syrah. Deep opaque ruby in the glass. A rather subtle aromatic set here (cooler ferment) -- inky, red plum, black cherry, notes of very ripe blackcurrant and lees. Dry on the palate with a medium acidity, fuller extract and body, framed by medium-plus, medium-textured tannins. It has a medium length and fruit intensity that follows the nose: plum, inky, minerally with a medium-plus finish. 2024-2028–IR

Terre di Kama Rosso Terre Siciliane IGP Appassimento
The grapes were partly dried on the vine and partly on the racks. The wine has a deep opaque ruby robe. It opens with medium intensity and notes of prune and fig, endive, sealing wax and licorice/chicory. Softer than medium acidity on the palate, just a hint of sweetness with a medium-plus extract and closer to full body with fine-textured, medium-plus tannins. A nice length and intensity here with plum reduction, chicory, prune, floral and sweet notes to a medium plus warm finish. 2024-2028–IR

Colpasso Nero d'Avola DOC Sicilia
Although not mentioned on the label, the wine has a portion of “passito” or lightly dried grapes. It is deep opaque ruby in the glass. Well-pronounced notes of plum custard/cheesecake, vanilla, pickling spices and floral/leafy notes on the nose. The palate shows a medium acidity; it is dry and of a medium frame with soft to medium textured tannins. A medium length and intensity with plum custard and floral/leaf notes to medium-plus finish. 2024-2026–IR
