Biodynamic now for over 20 years, Giusto is as non-interventionist as you are going to get and the Cerasuolo is a blend of Nero d'Avola and Frappato. A medium bodied, complex, very smooth wine with fascinating flavours, elegance and balance..really good. We asked our 3-year old (Callum) what he thought and he said it smelt like chocolate. He was dead right, among other things, there is a definite whiff of Valrhona chocolate...
