Contempo is a fresh and lean expression of Nero d’Avola from western Sicily that opens with aromas of wild berry, rose petal and toasted almond. It’s a simple red wine that would pair with pasta or easy meat dishes. ——M.L.(4/1/2012)—— 87

The 2006 Nero d’Avola is awesome. A pretty, layered offering, it shows plenty of dark fruit, licorice and mint with the notes of gaminess that are typical of Nero d’Avola. There is excellent depth and delineation for a wine at this level. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2010. Santa Anastasia, located outside Palermo, is a great source for delicious, value-priced wines from Sicily.

You’ll encounter mild rose and floral aromas on the nose of this cheerful Nero d’Avola, with cherry and blackberry notes and plenty of almond. There’s some tartness in the mouth but the rest gives way to spice and black peppercorn. Imported by Empson (USA) Ltd. ——M.L.(7/1/2006)—— 88
