👁 In the Glass:
Deep purple with inky intensity—vivid and commanding.

👃 On the Nose:
Complex and savoury. Ripe plum and dark cherry meet notes of peat, spice, and Mediterranean herbs, underpinned by a subtle mineral edge.

👅 On the Palate:
Full-bodied and structured. Rich black fruit is balanced by savoury depth and fine tannins, with hints of tobacco, graphite, and dark earth. The finish is long, poised, and impressively persistent.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Excellent with grilled steak, braised short ribs, wild boar, or mature cheeses. A wine built for bold, flavour-packed dishes.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Enjoy now with decanting, or cellar for 10–15 years to allow the tannins to soften and the complexity to deepen.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
‘Effe Emme’ is a rare, refined take on Sicilian Petit Verdot—rich yet elegant, with personality, pedigree, and the unmistakable signature of Filippo Mazzei. A true statement wine from Noto.
