Palama’s wines suffered from the rains in the 2002 vintage, but this blend of Negro Amaro and Malvasia Nera was a success in 2001. Ruby in color, jammy and a bit oaky on the nose, but not to excess, it is round and supple in flavor and with some pleasurable caramel and chocolate notes on the finish. Drink: 2004-2008.No known American importer.
