"Grown on a combination of basalt, shale, sandstone, dolerite, quartz and limestone, this 2021 Nero d'Avola is every bit as inappropriately luminescent as I was hoping. “Inappropriate” because as adults we are trained to favor savoriness and complexity, and this is sweet, guilty and pure. It is so pretty and bright that it's almost not for adults. Full of wild summer raspberry, redskin lollies, pomegranate juice and black cherries, this is awesome. Nero does well in Australia, and we are seeing more and more of it. This is delicious, but it will not be for everyone, thanks to its luminous fruit." -Robert Parker
