Depths of black raspberry mingle with licorice and grilled herbs as the 2022 Cerasuolo di Vittoria Classico opens in the glass. Pleasantly sweet up front, it splashes across the palate with ripe wild berry fruit and a cascade of spice, all propelled by juicy acidity. The finish is crisp and lightly tannic, with a bitter tinge that calls the taster back for more. The 2022 aims to please.
