Santo Spirito. Thin brick red. Vanilla, cherry and herb notes in nose. Tart cherry and oak in mouth. Chunky tannin finish, must decant. Could age this one another decade, too many seed tannins to drink even after 48 hours decanting.

For an “off-vintage” on Etna, this puppy is drinking incredibly well - oscillating #volcanicfunk with roses, ripe cherries, and playful tannins that are DTF

Perhaps the best wine I've had in Italy after being here for two weeks. Aged in cedar and full of elegant spice, dark fruit and so nicely balanced. They call it the Burgundy of the Mediterranean for good reason.
