Tenuta Scilio di Valle Galfina
Orphéus Etna DOC Rosso Nerello Mascalese Blend
Etna, Catania, Sicily, Italy
Classic volcanic red. Dark garnet. Abundant nose of blackberry tea, brick, and red apple peel. Echoed on the medium palate with juicy medium plus acidity and fine, earthen medium tannins. Palate continues through the dark and lengthy finish. What Etna is all about. Juicy, earthen fruit that's a fine accompaniment to almost any red wine (and some white wine) fare. Great alternative to Pinot Noir or Garnacha. Drink now through 2026.

Great nose of black cherry, shaved spices and wet earth. Tongue coating sweet sinewy tannins. Flavor less complex than the aromatics.

Excellent Etna Rosso from the slopes of Mt Etna in Sicily. Hard to find so pick them up when you see them.
