Donnafugata Mille e una Notte 2011
- 1500 ml bottle
Product details
Purple-ruby. Captivating floral lift to the aromas of plum, blackcurrant, star anise, cocoa and cinnamon; this is a great deal more perfumed than the 2010. Smooth, lush and round, with a fresh, juicy quality lending precision to the suave flavors of dark berries and cocoa and contributing to an impression of early personality. I love the combination of texture and focus here. Finishes broad and long, with ripe, polished tannins and a repeating violet nuance. This is one of the best young Mille e Una Notte wines I have tasted to date. A blend of mainly Nero d'Avola with small additions of Syrah and Petit Verdot. Drinking window: 2019-2029. Score - 95.
