The 2009 Mille e Una Notte is a gorgeous wine that shows its age with pride. A beautiful wine like this puts any doubt concerning the aging ability of Sicilian red wines to rest. Polished and carefully evolved notes of dried cherry, licorice, pressed rose petal, dark chocolate and coffee bean add momentum to the bouquet. The wine is mostly Nero d'Avola with smaller percentages of other red grapes thrown into the mix. Great care goes into making this wine and it shows. The large production numbers also mean that Mille e Una Notte is relatively easy to find at a wineshop near you.
