Hugonis Terre Siciliane IGT - Tenuta Rapitalà

The powerful Hugonis Terre Siciliane from Tenuta Rapitalà comes into the glass with a dense purple-red color. With a little sideways movement, the red wine glass reveals a charming garnet-red hue at the edges. When the wine glass is swirled, this red wine reveals a high viscosity, which can be seen in the strong stained glass windows at the edge of the glass. When poured into a red wine glass, this red wine from Italy reveals wonderfully expressive aromas of blueberry, mulberry, blackcurrant and blackberry, rounded off with cocoa bean, black tea and gingerbread spice, which are contributed by ageing in wooden barrels.

This red wine from Tenuta Rapitalà is ideal for all wine lovers who like it dry. However, it is never austere or brittle, but round and supple. This fleshy and dense red wine is powerful and complex on the palate. The finish of this red wine from the wine-growing region of Sicily, which is capable of maturing, is impressive with a beautiful aftertaste.
