Everyone enjoyed this with our homemade spaghetti. Nice integrated tannins, lighter body, a little dried fruit character. — 3 years ago

Erse Etna Rosso Red Blend 2020

Really nice. Light to medium bodied but with more depth beyond just red fruit, earthy and actually felt a little fuller on the palate than it looks in the glass. Would go really well with pasta and even a cheese plate with some cured meats. Around $30. — 6 months ago

Erse Etna Rosso Moscamento 1911 Nerello Mascalese

Tenuta di Fessina Erse moscamento 1911
From the northeastern slopes of Etna, v. old vines grown on basalt lava & sandy soils.
Very Burgundian nose, airy, spacious with fresh red berries, some undergrowth and tree bark, a flower whiff, some baking spice. After some time this gains warmth and shows a bit more nougat and some ripe cherry. But very light & fine.
On the palate this remains light with a firm yet polished tannin frame and juicy red berry acidity. There’s nice precision here, crunchy pure fruit, a mineral bite in the back, good depth and a hint of saltiness towards the finish. Fine, juicy, elegant.
A really good alternative to Burgundian Pinots, finer and with more precision vs some other Nerellos. Really good value, too. — 3 years ago
