Avide Cerasuolo di Vittoria Barocco 2018

Sicily is often associated with bold, sun-drenched reds, but Cerasuolo di Vittoria offers something altogether more refined. As the island's only DOCG, it perfectly captures the balance between richness and freshness, combining the depth of Nero d'Avola with the fragrance and elegance of Frappato.

The 2018 Barocco opens with vibrant aromas of black cherry, wild raspberry and ripe plum, followed by hints of dried herbs, sweet spice and earthy savory notes. The palate is generous without feeling heavy, revealing silky tannins, bright acidity and a beautiful harmony between ripe fruit and savory complexity. Time in oak adds subtle texture and polish without overshadowing the purity of the fruit.
