The 2013 Nardò Riserva Nerìo is a flamboyant and opulent wine that flaunts excessive muscle power and fleshiness. The blend is 80% Negroamaro and 20% Malvasia Nera di Lecce and the wine is aged in tonneaux for eight months. Heavy tones of black plum, cured meat and barbecue smoke peel off the bouquet. In terms of mouthfeel, the wine offers thick veins of sweetness and chewiness. Nerìo is seriously over the top.
