TANCREDI<br>Donnafugata
TANCREDI
Donnafugata 2005

The two varieties fuse in fine style. The cabernet sauvignon gives the nero d'avola a touch of mint, enriching its substantial supply of scents. Notes of liquorice, cocoa, cherries and bilberries against a sweetish background. The flavours are well-structured, full, absorbing and remarkably persistent.
