Calmarossa Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese Nerello Cappuccio
Etna, Catania, Sicily, Italy
A very small production of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio from an ancient vineyard on the slope of a crater of Mount Etna. Minerality at it best and elegance.

This is already freaking amazing but...infanticide. Prepare for some VA. Next bottle in 2029.

It was like drinking from an ice cold creek. So crisp and clear, minerally and penetratingly intense. Notes of dry dark red and black fruits guiding to an extremely well balanced finish creating this insatiable appetite for more. Paired greatly with our home made bruschetta, aged Beemster Gouda, hand delivered by RoAnne 😁, aged red cheddar, dry salami, rosemary whole grain crackers, and blue berries. (skip the tart strawberries and a white cheddar).

Very young with tart red fruit (cranberry and raspberry) and some herbal/tobacco notes. Quite round in the mouth with medium tannins and acidity. The second day the tartness was less prevalent. Good but was perhaps expecting more.
