Alcesti- Isola del Satiro 2018

Italy, Sicily

Grapes: 70% Nero d’Avola and 30% Perricone

Gianfranco Palladino and his family are making organically farmed wines from indigenous grapes in the Marsala region of Sicily.

This Sicilian red shows a striking ruby red and violet in the glass. Aromas of dark berries and purple flowers with a delicate and light spice note. On the palate ripe raspberry and fresh cherry integrated by a gentle acidity.  Soft and delicate tannins.

Pairings: Pizzas, eggplant parmigiana or a grilled swordfish.
