Tasca d’Almerita Regaleali Lamuri Nero d'avola 2005
|
Lamúri, or “love” in Sicilian dialect, is Tasca d’Almerita’s most luscious, fruit-forward, and youthful Nero d’Avola. Made from 100% Nero d’Avola, from 10-15 year old vines
grown in sandy soils. The unique micro-climate provides Lamuri its pleasant freshness and elegance. Aged in 20% new and 80% second and third passage French barriques
for 12 months for extra inesse, Lamúri is also reined in bottle for three months before release.

Readers will find a more elegant, refined expression of Nero d’Avola in Regaleali’s 2005 Nero d’Avola Lamuri. This silky-textured red reveals an almost Pinot-like expression of red fruits, flowers, spices and toasted oak. Here the fruit is especially perfumed, while the finessed tannins frame the fruit with uncommon grace. It is a terrific effort that demonstrates the level of excellence Nero d’Avola can reach with attentive work in the vineyard. The wine also benefits from a relatively high-altitude site. The cool evenings provide balance to the hot daytime temperatures resulting in a wine of notable elegance. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2012.
Tasca d’Almerita is a reliable source for delicious wines from Sicily.

“Immediately appealing with its bright ruby color, frutti di bosco
lavors and fresh pine forest aromas, this wine packs plenty of
stuing onto its lithe frame. It feels simultaneously modern and
ancient, a rich savor that’s irmly Mediterranean. A sleek partner
for grilled rack of lamb.”
