WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Vurria is an elegant and harmonious expression of Nero d’Avola, thanks to high elevation vineyards. A dark bouquet with sweet spices, where berries and plum standout. The palate is silky, with waves of currant and black cherry. Aging in tonneaux lends roundness and a velvety texture.
TASTING NOTES:
Enticing aromas of blackberry bush at first – just like smelling your hands after you’ve been blackberry picking. With air, eucalyptus and sea-urchin-like notes creep in and it’s these that go on to characterize the medium- to full-bodied palate, building through the finish. Fine, lightly firm tannins. Very savory at the end. A bit raw, but interesting.
