Italia Magazine
‘Barroccio’ translates as ‘delivery cart’ – the typical method of delivering wine barrels to local cellars. From expert producer Pasqua, this juicy red is made from Nero’d’Avola grapes, one of Sicily’s indigenous varieties. Bursting with aromas of ripe dark cherries and blackberries, on the palate you’ll find even more dark fruit and a hint of smoke and warm spices. Savour the smooth tannins and the long finish.
