Big Etna Rosso. More hefty then elegant. Boozy, barnyard funk that does blow off somewhat w air, dried sour cherry, fennel, Lingering tannins

Showing great with 10 years age. Elegant and slightly earthy.

The right vintage at the right time: surprising transparency, verve, and delicacy. Brightly perfumed with cherry and... magma. Imported by T Edward

Even though I love Sicilian wine, this is the first time I've actually had this producer! It's fantastic too. Lot's of herbal, red fruit notes. Not as funky as COS but has energy and vibrancy in spades.

A delicious wine with terrific precision. Cherries and raspberries in abundance, the translucency is deceiving as there's power here. Light bodied but intense.
