Eleuteria, Nerello Muscalese in purity
A clear ruby, great concentration. At the nose violets and musky rose, then it lets emerge dark notes of Mediterranean scrub, bark, rust, rhubarb and blood hints, at the end corroborated by mentholated balsamic, licorice and marine hints. The palate is full of gentle strength, fine tannins and great extraction, alcohol diluted by tartaric freshness in evidence, the finale is savory and with vegetal returns.
“Eleuteria, splendid garnet robe. The aroma expresses a fine texture of medicinal herbs, sour cherries in spirit, rhubarb, tamarind, cinchona bark, incense, humus and a thin mineral vein. Elegant to the gulp, straight round and a tannin of noble quality. It fades in a slow balsamic progression.”
Bibenda 2022, 5 Grappoli
“Already inviting for the colour, super bright and luminous, a ruby slightly concentrated. The aromas are light and symphonic, starting from a beautiful floral background of violet and rose, revived by fresh notes of orange peel and medical herbs. The palate is graceful, soft, flowing thanks to a beautiful wood fruit and darker sensations of olives and rhubarb. The drinkability is very high, we recommend to taste it at 15 degrees to fully appreciate a wonderful expressive lightness. The wine is articulated, airy, but at the same time incisive, with a slightly spicy finish.“
