Tasting - Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola


Name: Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola
Variety: Nero D'Avola
Region: Sicily
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $8.95

Winemaker's notes: Very dark purple, with a reddish-violet edge, typical of this grape. Black plums, a hint of licorice and subtle spice, not overly complex but appealing. A big mouth full of juicy black fruit is well structured by tart acidity and soft but distinct tannins. 

My Review: This wine was another new variety of wine I tried at this weeks tasting. Didn't enjoy this one. Smell was strong and smelled a little like plums. Tasted pretty bad, no sweetness and acidic. I wouldn't drink this again.

I had this on its own without food.
