NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Donnafugata Floramundi is an exquisite wine that showcases the unique characteristics of the Sicilian terroir.This red wine is made from a blend of indigenous grape varieties, including Nero d'Avola and other local red grapes.
On the nose, Floramundi offers a bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, accompanied by delicate floral notes. The palate is smooth and velvety, with well-integrated tannins and a soft acidity that adds freshness to the wine. Flavors of red berries, plums, and a hint of spice linger on the finish, creating a harmonious and complex tasting experience.
The wine is medium-bodied, making it versatile and suitable for a variety of occasions. It pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, pasta dishes with rich tomato-based sauces, and aged cheeses. Serving it slightly chilled will enhance its fruitiness and make it even more enjoyable.
While Floramundi is a delightful wine to be enjoyed now, it also has the potential to age gracefully. If stored properly in a cool and dark place, it can develop further complexity and evolve over the next few years.
