Passorosso Terre Siciliane Nerello Mascalese 2024

Best red if the trip, a Franchetti from Pascopissciaro, a round bodied nerello mascalese from the cellar at Cave Ox in Solicchiata on the north slope of Etna. Would be even better with a few years — 3 months ago

Contrada Cavaliere Etna Bianco Carricante 2019

An excellent white from Sicily. Pale yellow with aromas of minerality, lemon zest, and apple. On the bud, it’s has a nice full body with citrus flavors of lemon and grapefruit. Finish is long. — 6 months ago

'Crasa Contrada' Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese 2017

From Le Volpe e l’uva, this is not as good an expression of nerella mascalese as what comes out of a place like Passopisciaro, but you can’t beat it for the price. Italy in a glass… — 5 years ago

Quota 1000 Contrada Barbabecchi Sicilia Nerello Mascalese 2014

開店した年の記念VT。
少しガーネット色。もう少し甘さのある感じかと思いきや、結構ドライというか冷涼感のある味わいで、すごく繊細で透明感のある印象。
かと言って、厳格かとかタイトかと言われたらそんなことはなく、すごく優美でスムーズな感じ。
ホワイトペッパーや、白い花、ドライフラワー。

エリオアルターレのバローロ アルボリーナ2014の雰囲気にかなり近い。
グラーチがバローロのコレクターらしいし、実際に味わい的にもベンチマークとしているのかも。

Passopisciaro Sicilia Nerello Mascalese 2022

Set out to try a Sicilian wine for the first time (that I can remember) at my favorite restaurant in NYC and it did not dissapoint! Notes of cherry, red fruit, and smoke. Surprisingly mineral finish for a red, incredibly dry! Fantastic! — 4 months ago
