A juicy and rich wine with lots of chocolate and blackberry character. Full body, round and velvety tannins and a flavorful finish. Shows beautiful potential. A blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, petit verdot and syrah.

I published my review of the 2017 vintage of this "Nectar of the Gods" a little while back and am now reaching back to 2016 to keep the databased updated. The Nittardi 2016 Maremma Toscana Nectar Dei is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Syrah with 5,646 bottles produced. This is a thickly extracted and rich red wine with black fruit, plum, spice, leather and sweet spice or toast. It is a medium to full-bodied red that can stand up to roast pork or grilled steak.
