Tasting - Tenuta Rapitala Campo Reale

Name: Tenuta Rapitala Nero d'Avola Campo Reale 2016
Variety: Campo Reale
Region: Sicily
Country: Italy
Year: 2016
Price: $14

Winery ReviewThis early-drinking Nero d'Avola opens with ripe black-skinned fruit, tilled soil and cooking spice aromas. Straightforward and savory, it delivers black cherry, blackberry and ground pepper flavors alongside round tannins.


My Review: This medium-bodied wine has an earthy and herbal smell. It has tannins and is very dry, which was felt immediately. It is smooth and has a subtle cherry-like taste that is not overwhelming. It is only of the few red wines that I've enjoyed.

I tasted this wine without food.
