Crafted from a blend of Nero D'Avola and Syrah grape varieties, this vintage exudes a rich and inviting depth of flavor. The body is full, delivering a satisfying weight on the palate that complements its medium acidity, adding an invigorating lift to every sip. The fruit intensity is prominent, showcasing layers of dark berries and plums that mingle beautifully with hints of spice and oak. With notable tannins that provide structure without overshadowing its fruit-forward nature, this wine is dry, making it an ideal companion for a variety of hearty dishes. Castel Venus Ubi Major offers a remarkable tasting experience, reflecting the lush terroir of Sicilia and the devotion of the winemakers.
