Girolamo Russo
Etna Rosato Nerello Mascalese
The last time I tasted this wine, I was disappointed. But then I tasted Nerina and it returned my faith in Russo. So now giving one more chance to Rosato. And it's wonderful! Delicate and sophisticated bouquet full of cheese with mold, grass, sea, spices, red currant. Medium+ acidity, well balanced, long aftertaste with flavours of gooseberry, red currant and nice iodine touch.

Aug 5th, 2021Pale straw with just a tinge of salmon color, small nose (hard to know). As it warmed a bit with some air it evened out- light body on the dry acidic side, touch of peach & strawberry sweetness. A decent Rosé but not as good as other more full bodied that we’ve liked.
