Cusumano Sicilia IGT "Sagana" 2006 |
|
These Nero d’Avola grapes are harvested by hand and only the best clusters are selected for vinification. They form a medium to full-bodied red with lush fruit marked by spice and oak from time in small barrels. Sagana is a local term for a hidden supply (of fine wine in this case) reserved for only close friends and family. |
