Forti Terre Di Sicilia

2005 Sicilia Nero D'avola, Cabernet Sauvignon

Cantina Sociale Di Trapani Forti Terre Di Sicilia is an exquisite red wine that beautifully captures the essence of the Sicilia region. This 2005 vintage is a masterful blend of Nero D'Avola and Cabernet Sauvignon, showcasing the rich heritage of Sicilian winemaking. The wine presents a deep ruby hue, drawing you in with its vibrant color. On the palate, it exhibits a medium-full body that is well-balanced by a pronounced acidity, providing a refreshing and lively feel. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing luscious notes of dark cherries, blackberries, and even subtle hints of plums, all harmoniously intertwined with undertones of spice and earthiness. The tannins are notably firm, offering structure and elegance, while the wine ultimately delivers a dry finish that beckons another sip. Perfectly embodying the character of its terroir, this wine is a true reflection of its origins in Sicilia.
