Alcoholic and acidic, very savory with sour cherries. Long finish and I’m not sure I’m a huge fan.

Fragrant, lively, dusky, surprisingly balanced considering its age.

‘A Rina Etna Rosso from Giralomo Russo is drop dead gorgeous with an enchanting red fruit nose and a savory and stony background. Fresh and good grip on the palate but falls a bit short to qualify for the big league. Nevertheless, considering its modest price this must qualify as a bargain.

Quite unique. Sort of a dusky/earthy dark cherry nose, light and lively and dark in the mouth. Has some Pinot character, but a bit darker. Long finish.

Soft tannins, long legs, and a fruity taste balanced by flowers. Long finish. Yum!

My first Etna Rosso. Intensely stony tannins and a noticeably mineral-driven weight. Boozy wild strawberry and dark cherry fruit open up and lighten with some air. Hard edges, but was a treat with the ol’ Long Island sausages and peppers.
