Valle dell'Acate Description
"Valle dell’Acate’s red wines always stand out in a blind tasting for their explosive aromas of wildflowers and brushy herbs, so evocative of southern Sicily’s windswept Vittoria countryside. This wine is no exception, exuding scents of freshly cut grass, tobacco leaf and menthol that meld with flavors of juicy strawberry and raspberry. Savory tones emerge as the wine opens in the glass, complementing those herb-tinged red fruit flavors." - 93 pts Wine & Spirits

"A fine-tannined and pretty red with dark cherry, orange peel and spice. Medium-bodied with attractive fruit and a lightly chewy and dried-earth finish. Plenty here. Drink now."
Vinous Media: 91 Points
"A spicy and smoky mix of crushed blackberries, pepper-tinged florals and minty herbs makes the 2019 Cerasuolo di Vittoria Classico impossible to ignore. It’s round yet lifted and spry, with hints of sour grapefruit that quickly add a mouthwatering tension, as tart wild berries and minerals settle upon the palate. The 2019 tapers off classically dry throughout the long, yet fresh and perfumed finale."
