Lots of flavor! — 3 years ago
Everyone enjoyed this with our homemade spaghetti. Nice integrated tannins, lighter body, a little dried fruit character. — 3 years ago
Пьяная вишня, малина, калина, чай, тимьян, сухая мята, сухая земля. Среднее тело, живая кислотность, мягкие, чуть подсушивающие танины, аккуратный дуб. По стилистике похоже на неплохой коммунальный пино нуар, но по-южному жарковато и загорело. — 6 years ago
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. — 7 months ago

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
Like a livelier Chianti. Lots of zing. Give it at least an hour to open up. — 6 years ago
