Kubila Kubila red 2023

From Kubila Kubila in Italy, this dry red wine blends Nerello Mascalese, Nero d'Avola and Syrah from the 2023 vintage. New to Nerello Mascalese? Nerello Mascalese is a Sicilian red grape grown on the slopes of Mount Etna, producing pale, elegant, high-acid wines with red-fruit and volcanic minerality. Nero d'Avola comes along for the ride as well — Sicily's flagship red grape, giving warm, full-bodied wines with ripe black-cherry, plum and a savory, sun-baked character. Italy is a wine lover's playground — hundreds of homegrown grapes and a different specialty around every bend, from crisp Alpine whites to sun-baked southern reds. Pour it with weeknight pasta, roast chicken or a cheese plate and you're golden. Serve it at cool room temperature.
