Cusumano Nero d'Avola Syrah Benuara 2017

There's some bitter chocolate, along with lots of black fruit and a hint of sweetness to balance. The generous, supple tannins make this so easy to enjoy. Long, ripe but harmonious finish.

Cusumano has recently invested heavily in improvingtechnology and endeavored to improve the condition in which grapes arrive at their facilities. The team has started to bring in all grapes by hand, as opposed to resorting to pumps, as they did in the past. Gentler handling means grapes now reach the presses with skins intact and totally dry, greatly reducing the risk of premature oxidation or bacterial spoilage.
