Mirabile, Sicilia

Mirabile's 'Super-Sicilian' is a Nero d'Avola, Cabernet Sauvignon and Tannat blend. Aromas of pine cones, graphite, eucalyptus and violets complement the rich dark fruits nose and continue on the palate. The wine is only 50% barriqued and maintains a lively personality and clear delineation in a region which can often produce overly-ripe, jammy, soupy wines, lacking in structural complexity. Only 4,500 bottles made.

The Mirabile estate

Situated near Menfi, in the north-west of Sicily but on the southern coast, the almost painfully picturesque Mirabile estate benefits from a relatively moderate climate for the island, tempered by the cooling sea breeze which helps the wines retain their acidity and aromatic freshness.
