Barone Montalto Cabernet Nero d' Avola Terre Sicillaine Ig 2018

 93 Points  Gold Medal  Exceptional

Dusty garnet color. Aromas of grilled root vegetables, demi-glace, and dried cherries in honey with a round, vibrant, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a smooth, interesting, medium-length marinated strawberry, clove, and black tea with forest fruit finish with medium tannins and moderate oak flavor. An earthy, well rounded Italian red that will be a conversation piece at the table.
