About the Wine

Papi's red wine from bella Sicilia is "Papios". 
In the definitive guide for Italian wines, Luca Maroni rated this wine 98pts, calling it "one of the year's best" from not only Sicily, but all of Italy in 2019.
 
The innovative blend combines equal parts of the indigenous grapes Nero d'Avola and Nerello Mascalese with two Bordeaux varietals, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Layers of flavors with blueberry, chocolate, mocha, and baked cherry are topped off with a deft touch of oak, vanilla, and Mediterranean herbs in the finish. The result is a spectacular wine that screams "Delizioso!

Blend: 25% Nero d'avola 25% Nerello Mascalese 25% Merlot
25% Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting Notes: Typical and varietal notes of cherry, mulberry and raspberry, blended with nuances of elegant spices such as vanilla, coffee and cocoa. The palate is wide, warm and envelopes the mouth with grip, elegant and velvety tannins. Fruity and rich aftertaste.
