Tasting- Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola

Name: Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola
Variety: 100% Nero D'Avola
Region: Sicily
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $8.95
   
Winery review:  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 and soft but distinct tannins. (02/21/2013- Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg, VA)

My review:This red wine was very dark in color. It had a strawberry nose as well. It tasted very dry at first but then I really started to like the wine as I took more sips. I would consider buying this wine in the future. I did not have any food with this wine tasting.
