Mortellito Calaniuru, Sicily, Italy 2024 Case (6x750ml) Painted Wolf dried black cherries and cedaryThe Calaniuru is driven predominantly by the achingly bright freshness of Frappato, delivering pulpy red cherry and strawberry fruit laden with herbal, almost tea like savoriness and lithe earthy tannins. The Nero lends a little added chutzpah and brooding spice but make no mistake, this is still a decidedly light handed wine.
