Purchase Colosi Nero d'Avola 2008

"Colosi’s 2008 Nero d’Avola is a fresh, vinous offering loaded with perfumed red fruit. Ideally the wine needs a few months to recover from its recent bottling, as the full range of aromas and flavors remains rather muted at this stage. This soft, supple Nero d’Avola offers terrific quality for the money. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2012. " -Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate
