Volcanic rocks and tiny berries, red fruits, rhubarb, a touch of caramel candy. Creamy mouthfeel, cutting acid and subtle tannins. And a finish that goes on for minutes. Sometimes a wine speaks so much of place, it’s hard to describe, but drinking this brings me back to Etna in a way few others can. High altitude (1300m) blend of indigenous Etna grapes blanc de noir. Everything is there for graceful long term aging too. Brilliant wine. Disgorged 2019

So impressed by this Sicilian sparkling rosé. Bright, zippy, mineral and quite easy to quaff!

Not a typical Rose... Oxidative, a touch sherry like, a bit volatile, but it all works. Walnut skins and vibrant spice to the max.

OK this if fun, delicious bubbly but what is with all the 90+ reviews? This is nice fun wine and I love it but that is all it is.

Subtle fruit. Volcanic minerality underneath. From the July Feiring Line Wine Society set. A Sicilian one off - these grapes usually make a still rose.

From high altitude Etna--alpine in nature. Yet seaside too. Raw cow'a milk, lemons and black currants hanging ripe and ready for the picking. Excellent with our left over Indian food. Not too far of a cry from Sicilian dishes. #exotic #etna #alpinewine #mountainwine
