Faro, Palari - 2018

750 mL
Item # 12039

A blend of fascinating and largely unheard-of indigenous red grapes: mostly Nerello Mascalese, and Nerello Cappuccio, with small amounts of Nocera, Calabrese, Acitana, and more. This is simply a beautiful red wine, with flavors of red berries, fresh tobacco, spices, and minerals. Changes by the minute.

Staff Pick Notes

A great wine can be drunk any time of the year, and always fulfils any wine-related craving. But a brilliant wine is rare and transcends all mortal planes of describing wine. In my life, I have had my fair share of wines, but few can blow me away the way the 2018 Faro, Palari can. A blend between two locally grown Sicilian grapes, the Faro Palari is a wine that hits on every note you want from a wine. It has decadence, sweetness, umami, beautiful red fruit flavors, baking spices, and I can go on and on. It is a journey of the taste buds and can be drunk at any time. A great wine should be drunk in celebration - a brilliant wine reminds you that every day is a celebration. The 2018 Faro, Palari is a wine that is worth every penny.
