Fox Gordon The Dark Prince Nero d'Avola 2017
Fox Gordon's The Dark Prince Nero d'Avola is an opulent and silky red wine sourced from vines that are approximately 10 years old. Twelve months barrel ageing adds subtle oak complexity to the wine which was bottled unfiltered.
Fresh and vibrant blue fruits are complemented by subtle notes of rosewater. With
opulent flavours of ripe, juicy cherries, dark chocolate, a touch of Dutch cocoa and fine supple tannins this is fabulous served slightly chilled.
