“Bright pink flowers, roses and strawberry fruit on the nose. Lively and expressive, fragrant and inviting. Smooth and succulent, a juicy and vibrant acidity on the mid palate with an iron tang, bitter orange and salty, oyster, iron, stone finish that is a touch dry but more mineral than unpleasant. Aspects of peppery spice and dried herbs on the finish leaving a sunny, warm expression. Nice clarity and precision with bite and a spicy tang. 15,500 bottles produced.”

“Mostly Narello Mascalese and the rest Nerello Cappuccio, raised in a combination of stainless steel, tonneaux, and large barrels, the 2020 Etna Rosso is a bright translucent medium ruby hue and offers a delicate bouquet of incense, fresh cranberries, and dried orange peel. Midweight and light on its feet, with fine tannins, a soft, stony texture, and a clean, mineral-toned finish, it’s a refreshing and versatile wine to drink over the next 5-6 years.”
