Eldorado Road Wines Comrade Nero d’Avola 2023 from Beechworth, Victoria, is a full-bodied red packed with power, structure, and richness. Dense, savoury tannins wrap around dark cherry, purple plum, brambly berries, and lively spices, with hints of ferrous earth and dark chocolate adding depth. Unfined and textured from lees contact, this wine earned 95 points from Halliday and is a rare, serious example of Australian Nero with real character and longevity.
