Castellaro Nero Ossidiana 2018 is a bold and complex red wine produced on the Italian island of Lipari in Sicily. This blend of Nerello Mascalese, Nero d'Avola, and other indigenous grape varieties is crafted using biodynamic farming methods and aged in oak barrels for 18 months.
On the nose, it offers intense aromas of ripe black fruit, spices, and a hint of smoke. On the palate, it is full-bodied with firm tannins and flavors of dark cherries, blackberries, and a subtle earthiness. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a pleasant spiciness in the mouth. This unique and expressive wine showcases the rich terroir of Lipari and is a must-try for lovers of Italian red wines.
