Lot 338 | 2021 DOC Sicilia Perricone 750ml

Lot 338
2021 DOC Sicilia Perricone

Red berries, red clay, freshly-stirred leaves, and garden herbs define the nose. The entry is dynamic with red fruit, new, soft leather, cherry-kissed acidity, and sun-dried tomatoes uplifted by medium+ acidity and plentiful, dry, grippy tannins. The finish is long with accents of dark chocolate, roasted coffee, and freshly-turned soils moving to a light, but persistent vanilla and red fruit umami. For fans of Barbera.

satisfying old world palatte

"the Perricone is approachable and offers hints of stonefruit on the front end. it has a smoothness i would have expected from milder climates but holds up well to earthier sauces and red meats. very good value."
