A single Vineyard Nerello Mascalese. Notes of cherry and prune. Fresh and savoury with a touch of sweetness. (Go figure!) Low tannins and totally smashable. No point in cellaring - drink now. 14.5% Alc.

Good Etna. Flavors are nice. Wine is a bit diffuse. No Fuedo but good.

Outstanding. Rich,Acidic spice, yet with delicate fruit and earth, so many notes spring forth when imbibed with the bold and diverse sensations of italian food. Volcanic and dark. Luscious mouthfeel.

Gritty and tannic, but beyond that soft, lingering fruit and spice.

Etna. Light fruit with a slight taste of medicine cabinet. Very good purchase for the price.

A heavier Rosso than most from Etna. Not the best.
