Benanti
Rosso di Verzella Etna Rosso Nerello Blend
Etna, Catania, Sicily, Italy
Nice effort! A cross between Burgundy and Barolo with a dash of Grenache. The more Etna Rosso I drink, the better my Italian gets!

Very light--reminiscent of gamay--with nice red fruit, some earthiness, and some tannins that grip. Good acidity makes it tasty and refreshing. Maybe a hint of anise? Reasonably priced too.

Delicious! Black Pepper, gravel, and red fruit. Light in body but full of flavor.

In honor of opening night of Rogue One a beautiful Benanti "Etna Rosso"...red cherry pith, licorice and gorgeous fresh flowers, sappy acidity and firm youthful tannin. Great QPR and versatile across a wide spectrum of cuisine.

Hefty-cheesy-white peach charmer, funky in that soulful white way if you're okay with the weird. Volcanic soil perfumes this with a white rose cordial cool. Loamy. Pretty finish with white flowers and closing on a polite peach note. Grazie ⭐️
