Le Sabbie dell'Etna Rosso Nerello Blend
Very interesting wine. Dark wild berry, rich mineral almost like iron or scorched earth, Garam Masala spice, lightly dried violets and herbs. Medium plus acid and tannins. Very nice young. Would be interesting to see how it develops.

Jul 6th, 2016Crunchy ripe cherries and clean, stony minerality. Full bodied, relatively lean, with good fruit/acid balance. A teensy bit hot in the finish.

Aug 6th, 2018Great wine, but best with food. Lamb would be nice. Not too heavy but nice depth.
