Rovittello Etna Rosso Nerello Cappuccio Blend

Freaking amazing, I hope someone is still importing this wine, it is slate and brimstone, soft tannins and beauty. It’s really opened up and we are still waiting on the Porterhouse to finish on the grill. Pretty marvelous Father’s Day wine

Gamey, light-med bodied. Great fruit and accessible.

Accessible and balanced! Bright fruit and mellow tannins.

Slightly corked, unfortunately. Raspberry jam. Earth, mineral. Bright, pretty. NYT Wine School this month.

Birthday wine. Still retains freshness

Such high hops for this. A bit austere. Herbal and gamey notes on palate

Zancanella

From Benanti's vineyard on the higher northern slopes of Etna. Frangelico and cherry liqueur with serious acid/tannin synergy...

familiar dark berry and earth notes. Some unpleasant astringency on this one that went away after a couple hours of breathing

A little bit rounder leaning to coffee and baking spice than some of my favorites but still a very fine example.
