Girolamo Russo

'a Rina Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese - Nerello Cappuccio

Gotta be in the running for the top bottle under $20. Fantastic wine. Berries on the breeze, liquid rocks, and a dirt road. — 6 years ago

Munjebel VA (Vigne Alte) Nerello Mascalese 2014

My second favorite of the night - a blend of Nerello Mascalese from his 4 highest vineyards - all > 870 M - and 90 year old fines, my notes read : rocky forest floor, red juicy cherry, firm tannins #etnavino #vulcanterroir

Elevation makes the skins thicker leading to more tannins. I say the higher the better.

Cottanera

Barbazzale Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese Nerello Cappuccio

Can be hard to find Mt. Etna wine in the states so I pounced on this when I saw it. Delicate red with subtle flavors of raspberry and cherry. Paired well with disdain and anxiety at the Super Tuesday results, but I also imagine this would be a great and versatile food wine. Light enough for midday sampling. Great #QPR — 8 years ago

Love it TC. Nice intro to the #VulcanTerroir. Cottanera makes good stuff. Barbazelle is their 'classic' wine, see if your lady can't get you one of their Crus, or a wine from Graci or Tenuta Terre Nerre. Maybe order a case or two with some wedding money.m

Munjebel (Classico) Rosso Nerello Mascalese 2014

First time with non Cru Munjebel - won't be the last time - believe the hype, Frank Cornelissen's wines are the truth, and part of that truth is eating it with local gastronomy. #vulcanterroir #frankcornelissen — 8 years ago

Tasca D'Almerita

Riserva del Conte Tenuta Regaleali Red Blend 2010

The highlight of a star studded night, an elusive and limited blend of Perricone/Nero D'Avola 66/33, this bad boy had me swimming in dark red tartarian cherry and velvety tannins, perfect with local Etna involtino #ensconced #thanksBT — 8 years ago

Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese 2014

A younger NerMasc with some earthiness and red berries to it, can tell it didn't spend a ton of time in oak, will be outstanding in a few years, great value for #vulcanterroir #qpronthetown #Etna — 8 years ago

Muscamento Etna Rosato 2014

Very interesting Etna Rosato - drinks more like a red than a white, first taste is surprising, almost like a kick in the crotch, the 3rd and subsequent tastes are as delightful as a Saturday afternoon backdoor cover. #vulcanterroir — 8 years ago
