Unico Zelo Halcyon Days Nero d'Avola 2020

Barmera, Riverland, South Australia

Viticulturally, Nero looks absolutely at home year after year in Riverland, as it’s able to achieve a balanced level of ripeness that we just don’t see year on year with the other regions - it’s probably the easiest of the three to decide when to pick. It’s bang-on this year, and as always it looks just that little bit Gamay-esque, almost Cru Beaujolais. Really lovely sweet nutmeg and baking spice aromatics, with a woody, cedary undercurrent, backed up by these bright punchy blue and brambly black fruits. Great mineral drive this year, salty acid line framed by crispy tannins. A bit of meaty chew to it - how nice! As always, chill it down - it’ll be great with charcuterie this year or even pepperoni pizza! It has always been a party wine, and it continues to be.

13.5% ABV / 750ml

位於南澳洲的Barmera，Riverland

從葡萄栽種的角度來看，Nero在Riverland每年都非常適合生長，因為它能夠實現平衡的成熟度，而這是我們在其他地區一年年看不到的 - 可能是三個地區中最容易決定何時採摘的。今年它發揮得非常好，一如既往地看上去有點Gamay-esque，幾乎像是Cru Beaujolais。真的非常可愛，帶有甜味的肉荳蔻和烘烤香料香氣，帶有木質、雪松的底色，支撐著這些明亮、鮮艷的藍色和黑莓果實。今年有很好的礦物驅動力，由脆性單寧框定的鹹酸線。有一點肉質的嚼感 - 真不錯！一如既往，冷藏它 - 今年它會很適合搭配開胃菜或甚至是意大利辣香腸披薩！它一直是派對酒，現在仍然如此。
