Tasting-Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola

Villa Pozzi Nero D'Avola

Variety: 100% Nero D'Avola or Calabrese
Region: Sicily
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $8.95

Tasting Notes: "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: I think the description the person pouring the wine gave: jammy yet dry. I think that describes it perfectly. It was a softer wine, not full of huge flavors, but there was still a pop of acidity to it.  

I tasted this on its own with no food.
