Notes | |||
"Ruby red with faint purple, typical of this variety which is not very rich in color. Clear hints of red berries, morello cherry and black cherry on the nose. The taste is characterized by its typical balanced tannins and a surprising fullness, flavor and persistence." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"A mineral, fresh and savory red with aromas of sliced mushrooms, lemons, wild strawberries, asphalt and crushed shells. Medium body with lightly dusty tannins. Bright finish. Drink or hold." —James Suckling "The 2019 Etna Rosso is coy at first, requiring coaxing to unlock its dusty mix of dried roses, red currants and exotic spice. This is a juicy and fun effort, one that places purity of fruit up front, yet then seduces the senses with depths of salty minerals and sour citrus that set off the entire experience. While not the last word on length, the 2019 Etna Rosso finishes crisply refreshing while leaving a hint of hard red candies to linger on." —Vinous |
