Tasca D'Almerita Rosso Del Conte

Tasca d'Almerita's Rosso del Conte is a Sicilian red anchored by Nero d'Avola, Sicily's signature dark-skinned variety, blended with complementary local grapes. The 2017 vintage expresses the volcanic minerality and cool-climate precision characteristic of Etna's high-altitude vineyards. Dark cherry and plum dominate the primary profile, supported by black pepper spice and dried herb notes from the secondary layer. Tertiary leather and earthy complexity emerge with bottle age, adding savory depth. Medium-full body and balanced tannin make this wine remarkably food-friendly across Mediterranean and grilled preparations.
