PASSOPISCIARO, Contrada Chiappemacine (C) 2015

Another sensational wine from Passopisciaro in this vintage, the 'Chiappemacine' is a simply gorgeous. Elegant and refined, this vivid Nerello Mascalese opens to bright aromas of red berries and floral along with nuances of spices and licorice all taking shape in the glass. Balanced, precise and beautifully structured, this continues to impress with its lovely overall finesse and inner-sweet red fruits which are underlined by bright acidity. Its beauty is already quite apparent, however I only expect it to continue to evolve and become even more appealing over time. (Best 2019-2029) - July, 2017 (JD)
