Contrada Dafara Galluzzo Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese
A little break from Tuscany. Single vineyard nerello mascalese from mt etna. Really has it together—juicy raspberry offset by savory game, baked earth, saline and herbal components.

Light red wine that is a good alternative for Burgundy. This Etna’s fruit is more restrained but still present and more Burgundy than New World in style.

Nov 28th, 2024Disappointing expensive Etna Rosso. Very subtle fruit and a dark fruit flavor. I expect more cherry and fruit from an Etna Rosso.
