Brash Higgins NDV Nero d'Avola 2016 von-buhl-estate finesse and fragrance all playing

finesse and fragrance all playing their part and a lingering

it will reward for 15 to 20 years to come

apple strudel

each parcel was destemmed and vinified separately

Brash Higgins NDV Nero d'Avola 2016 von-buhl-estate finesse and fragrance all playingTranslucent ruby in colour, with a negroni and amaro like nose with hints of lavender, nori and stem ginger. Orange peel also present, as is usual, reminiscent of an Old Fashioned cocktail, angostura bitters and all. A pomegranate, bright cherry mid palate balanced by a refreshing sweet and sour red currant cranberry acidity. The wine finishes with fine grained, chain link tannins that keep it all taut and exciting.
