Duca Enrico Duca di Salaparuta 750mL
*Vintages & batches may differ from images shown*
Deep, intense ruby red with purple tinges. Bouquet is complex and quite elegant, with notes of red berries, such as sour cherry and raspberry, along with notes of vanilla and hints of spices due to ageing in barriques. Great, elegant, and harmonious structure, characterised by smooth and velvety tannins. Very long aromatic persistence. Ideal with grilled and braised red meats and game. Excellent with medium and mature cheeses.
Many critics score this Sicily wine highly.
Critic tasting note: (2020 vintage) "On the nose, sweet aromas of vanilla, tobacco, blackberry and sugar plum waft above spicy, weightier notes of cinnamon, cardamom and clove. The more decadently sweet palate asserts flavors of macerated blackberries and whipped cream, but passion fruit also brings out the blackberries' tartness, and tannins provide grit." - Wine Enthusiast
