Here’s a red dessert wine, made with Sicily’s Nero D’Avola grape, that would make a good companion to chocolate-based treats. The wine is burgundy in color and dark in appearance, with bright cherry flavors and sour nuances weaved within.

This aged Nero d’Avola delivers sophisticated tones of cherry liqueur, asphalt, resin, coffee bean, dried prunes and plums. The wine delivers personality and charm with a silky, elegant feel in the mouth. The integrity of fruit probably won’t last much longer, so don’t wait long to drink it.

This older vintage of Torreforte from Tenuta La Lumia opens with a slightly brownish hue and delivers aged aromas of tar, resin, drying mineral and powdered licorice. The wine tastes firm, solid and ends with gritty, texture tannins. It’s near its peak of drinkability: don’t wait to pour it.

Don Totò is an austere, oak and spice-driven wine with aged aromas of resin, licorice, candied fruit, cherry liqueur andalmond pastry. The 5-plus years of age help fuel bursting cola and balsam-like intensity in the mouth.
