COLOSI NERO D'AVOLA - 2008

Sicilia Rosso. 14% alcohol.

TASTING NOTES:

Ruby red-purple color with a grape jam nose. Lots of cherry, blackberry, and plum. On the finish black currant and oak. Fresh, fragrant, with a solid structure.

SCORE & RECOMMENDATION:

88 PTS
A great mid-week wine. Enjoyable with food and a decent sipper. Good acidity and mouthfeel. Retails for $15.
