Wine & Spirits – Summer 2022

BUYING GUIDE

MORGANTE Don Antonio 2018 – 92 points

“This voluptuous nero d’Avola offers dark plum flavors layered with notes of lavender, licorice and dark chocolate. The wine rested for 18 months in French oak bariques, gaining a round and polished texture along with notes of vanilla and spice, yet the deep and lively fruit flavors absorb the oak influence effortlessly, and the wine’s mouth-watering acidity brings the flavors to a bright, vertical finish.”
