Tasting - Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola

Name: Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola
Variety: Sangiovese
Region: Sicily
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $8.95

Winery Review: Very dark purple, with a reddish-violet edge, typical of this grape. Black plums, a hint of licorice and subtle spice, not overly complex but appealing. A big mouth full of juicy black fruit is well structured by tart acidity and soft but distinct tannins.

My Review:  Very dark wine with a very strong, interesting taste to it.  It tasted very dark and strong.  Not very sweet, but had a bit of a taste of different spices. I would love to have this wine when eating a steak.
