Delinquente Wine co. Pretty Boy Nero d’Avola Rosato 2014


A label I have never tried before and it does look ominous with an ugly looking fellow on the label. The winery is owned by Greg Grigoriou and the fruit is purchased form the Riverland which is where he grew up.

This is a full bodied rosato with plenty of flavour. There is a nice balance between sweet plums, strawberry and more savoury notes of dried earth and spice on a long length. While I like the wine I would have preferred if it was more medium bodied and more savoury in profile.  I would see this being drunk as a dry red rather than a rosato. Either way a good quality wine if not a little confused as to what it is.
