It was a joy to taste this wine again. I have little to add to my previous tasting notes except for one thing. Nerina delivers even after 15 abv Magma while maintaining delicacy and complexity. Bravo.

What a beautiful and elegant Carricante-driven blend. Almost two years passed since the last time I tasted it. Today it revealed slow and steady development. A mix of lemons, quince, tarragon, amber (from the cherry tree?), chalk, orange oil, wet stone and some creamy cheese. Precise, juicy, pungent palate with a long mineral (limestone-y) aftertaste. Almost perfectly balanced, so I soloed the bottle like a champ (alcohol is not healthy, btw).

Hands down, I am in love with this wine. Beautiful floral and citrus bouquet with Roquefort cheese, aloe, estragon, honeydew secretion, chalk and grapefruit. Sophisticated, fresh and savoury, perfectly balanced and flavourful. Long aftertaste full of lemon, cheese and chalk. Now let me share some information not available on the label. Blend of Carricante, Catarratto, Inzolia, Grecanico, Minnella and Coda di Volpe. Only 10000 bottles were produced. And (!) macerated on skins for 24 hours. Bravo.
