Famiglia Castellani Nero d'Avola - Merlot

Italy • 13% ABV • 750ml

An Expert's Caption: " This red wine is combined from the local Nero d'Avola grape, which gives powerful dark wines. It is mixed with Merlot to create a soft and flattering fruit character in the wine and give a soft and long finish to the wine." — Winemaker's Notes

A Beginner's Caption: This is a strong tasting wine. Does that even make sense? I now understand how difficult it is to actually explain the taste of wine. If you're looking for something sweet, this is not it as it's quite bitter. But I gotta say, this does taste fancy.

Best enjoyed with: Blue cheese, BBQ and meat dishes
