Just brilliant. I'd had the white before but the rosé is like few others — drinks like the Lini white Lambrusco actually. — 7 years ago
Not sure this day would ever happen but alas, the magic of Etna and the magic of Cave Ox in Solicchiata, we decided that it was time - and on a day when the producer invited us over to join him at his table, we got to experience this living, ever evolving tribute to Etna, coming from 100+ year old prephylox vines from 910 m ASL from the "Grand Contrada" of Barbabaecchi. Not to mention the kick ass 2014 vintage. It was intoxicatingly fragrant with earthy red fruits erupting from the glass, dense, concentrated, complex and constantly evolving flavors with spice, leather, and seductive dark cherry, and a dreamingly long mouthfeel that lingered and danced along the palette. Lava in a bottle. What a memory. Thanks Frank 🍷🌋 #frankcornelissen #etna #CaveOx — 5 years ago

The most sophisticated Lambrusco I've had. 12% alcohol and bone dry with very austere fruit. Definitely a departure from the style I'm used to. — 7 years ago
