Nerello Cappuccio Terre Siciliane IGT Rosso — 2019 – Vinous – 92 Points
92 points
“The 2019 Nerello Cappuccio displays a purple hue in the glass, along with a pepper-tinged bouquet of red currants, dried flowers and hints of exotic spice. Its textures are deep and silky, soothing the palate with a wave of ripe red and black fruits that gain an energetic thrust through a core of zesty acidity. The 2019 finishes wickedly fresh with a reverberation of mouthwatering tension and flourish of inner sweetness to balance. This varietal Nerello Cappuccio is an absolute joy to taste, as it transports me to a place that’s somewhere between northern Rhone Syrah and Friuli Schioppettino. Lovers of Etna owe it to themselves to check it out.”
