Smoky plum, cinnamon, frankincense on nose; balsamic juicy silky young palate. Really reminds me of Valle D'aoste petit rouge or Nebbiolo. A lovely pairing with pasta alla norma.

The minor contributor to Etna Rosso as a solo performer. The encounter is a stunner. Adore this wine.

Smoother then usual Etna Rosso with Mascalese. Basket of red fruit, clear volcanic influence. Long finish.

Etna but seems barrel aged in oak for too long for my taste, smoky, oaky, rich and begs for boar.

Italian Gamay from Mt. Etna? Great red fruits and maybe even orange juice. Went quick.
