Az. G. Milazzo Rosso - Maria Costanza | Sicilia DOP (Sicilia) Nero d'Avola | BIO
Red wine | Italy, SICILIA | 2018
A very intense red color. In the nose we experience a spicy touch with some minerality. After a few minutes in the glass, this wine gives many aromas of ripe fruit (cherry and jam). In the mouth it stays soft, warm and nicely structured. In short: round, soft and with a long final.
