2021 IGT Terre Siciliane Nerello Mascalese Rose (Gold Medal)

With its red wine expression likened to Pinot Noir, it’s no wonder this light-bodied red-skinned grape would be an excellent contender for pink expressions. Strawberries, herbs, and blood orange on the nose are sliced by a chalky minerality haloed by incense perfume. The entry is all terroir; volcanic rock, sliced peppers, juicy cherries against perfectly interwoven, medium acidity. The finish is incredibly dry, almost mouth puckering, screaming to be served alongside shellfish or fresh seafood in a wide array of preparations. A perfect wine for fans of Provençal Rosé or Domestic Pinot Noir-based Rosés.
