PASSOPISCIARO, Contrada Guardiola (G) 2015

The 2015 Guardiola is a simply gorgeous wine, which is all about elegance and finesse. Guardiola dates back 100-years in age, and situated 3,300 feet above sea level. Beautifully refined this Nerello Mascalese releases inviting aromas of strawberries, raspberries, rose petals, spices, pepper, wild herbs and wet stones which all come together in the glass. Medium-bodied and silky the palate is kept vibrant with a lovely core of acidity, which carries over onto the finish and is framed by red fruits and peppery spices. Another outstanding wine from Andrea Franchetti in this vintage. (Best 2019-2028) - July, 2017 (JD)
