Tasting note from from 07.12.2020, Copyright Sebastian Bordthäuser

Grown near Vittoria, Cerasuolo di Vittroria is made from 60% Nero d'Avola and 40% Frappato. Grown on the local red soils with high pebble and limestone content, the grapes were hand-picked from vines averaging 25 years old. They fermented spontaneously with their own natural yeasts in Slavonian oak barrels before the wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Color

Dark ruby red with a transparent core.

Nose

The 2016 Cerasuolo di Vittoria Classico from the Azienda Agricola COS shines with powerful, dark aromas of black cherries, mulberries and pomegranate seeds fill its fruit basket. In addition, dried fruit such as dried figs and prunes, all seasoned with a pinch of allspice, black pepper as well as juniper and dark tobacco. To the continuing herbal notes like sage and laurel comes the distinctive impression after umami. Mouth-watering with ethereal top note.

Mouth

All facets of the nose are bundled on the palate by the uncompromising hedonistic fruit The ethereal herbal notes of sage flank the delicate tannic fringe, the spicy flavors give complexity and depth. Despite the supposed density, a lightness and light-heartedness radiates from the wine that is pure bliss. Super kinky with a long fruity-cool finish.
