This vintage of Menfri (a “super Sicilian” blend of Nero d’Avola, Tannat and Cabernet Sauvignon) seems to have suffered from summer heat. The wine tastes jammy and sweet with aromas of prunes, plums and raisins.

Here’s an interesting Sicilian expression of the French grape Tannat with black, inky aromas of soda, balsam, spice, mesquite and smoked ham. The wine closes with bright acidity and mouth-puckering astringency.

This vintage of Mirabile’s pretty Nero d’Avola (with the attractive label featuring a Sicilian succulent plant) offers impressive intensity and purity of aromas. The wine is smooth and bright with fresh berry notes, almond and smoky after tones.

Here’s a very successful expression of Nero d’Avola with smoky tones of mesquite wood, jerky, honey-roasted ham and exotic spice. There’s a broad base of mature fruit at the back—especially black cherry and prune—that adds to the wine’s plush, succulent mouthfeel.
