09 Castellani Nero D'Avola Sicily
I feel the same about coffee, I do. Sometimes you get a good cup of coffee from a diner, so good, you wonder what they did to it to make it taste the way it does. Was the cup even clean? Who cares, it was good, don't ask too many questions. Buy it and go. I feel pretty much the same about Italian wines lately.
First things first. Right now there are a lot of Italian wines on the market, most cheap, some good, a few with serious doubts or issues. Castellani has found a great niche; awesome price, great taste, a depth and complexity that you really can't find for under $20 anywhere.
Surprise is not the word. I mean.. we're talking 8.99. Under nine bucks for something that is as good with with food as any wine I've tried in recent memory. My glass was clean, i was not in a diner, and when i looked at the bottle across from me knowing i had not made a purchase my bank account would disagree with, i was happy.
Just buy this already. Thank me later.
