Nero D’Avola Lagnusa Sicilia DOC
Vinous
92
“In a cloud of crushed violet candies, sugar-dusted currants and hints of sage evolve, making the 2020 Nero d’Avola Lagnusa a total aromatic pleasure. Soft-textured and round, this impresses further with ripe red and blue-toned fruits, complemented by sweet spice over a core of vibrant acidity. The Lagnusa finishes remarkably fresh yet long, leaving the mouth watering while still resonating on hints of blackberry and a bitter twang of sour citrus.”
Wine Spectator
91
"Delivers wild strawberry, raspberry and red licorice notes that are expressive and juicy, with tea rose, thyme and tar notes and bright orange peel acidity. Long and creamy on the palate, with fine, chalky tannins. Tasted twice, with consistent notes."
The Wine Advocate
90
“This reveals warm-vintage definition with soft and round sensations in the mouth. Aged only in cement and bottle, the wine shows a strong focus on primary fruit with plump cherry, blackberry and potting soil.”
Wine Enthusiast

"Wild strawberries, cherries and sour plums give way to tobacco and grilled meat on the nose of this wine. Crunchy red fruit on the palate suggests cranberries, hibiscus and freeze-dried strawberries. The wine has angular tannins plus lots of acid and heat."
