Hither + Yon Nero d’Avola 2016

A vibrant Nero from Hither + Yon. A grape with real promise in the warmer parts of the Vale.

Lovely raspberry and red currant nose – a cavalcade of black and red berries. Sandy tannins, black licorice and dark fruit that dances on the right side of ripeness. This is what Nero should taste like – grippy tannins. black fruit, a hint of dried leaves, lots of flavour. Really good and all for 13% alcohol. Best drinking: Now to five years plus. 17.7/20, 92/100. 13%, $30. Would I buy it? I’d share a bottle.
