Alcoholic fermentation and maceration on the skins last from 10 to 15 days; malolactic fermentation and maturation are carried out in oak (25% new).  After 18 months the wine is bottled without filtering. Made from very fine Nerello Mascalese 95% and Nerello Cappuccio 5% from low yielding vineyards (35 Hl. Per hectar), both young and old. The wine  continues its life in wood until bottled roughly one year after harvest. Even young it is a distinguished wine. Fresh, fragrant, beautifully slender and with a fine grip, it has a natural polish, and in aging, gathers into rich complexity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Fragrant and refined, the straight Etna Rosso 2022 from Tenuta delle Terre Nere is fantastic, and even more amazing is that this is the firm's entry level red. Made with Nerello Mascalese and a tiny percentage of Nerello Cappuccio, it opens with alluring scents of small red berry, wild herb, hay and spice while the smooth, savory palate features crushed raspberry, wild strawberry and baking spice. A saline tang signals the close while lithe tannins and fresh acidity keep it balanced. Drink through 2029”\u003cbr\u003e— 92 Points, Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast Magazine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Incredibly spicy, the 2022 Etna Rosso bursts from the glass with a wild bouquet of cloves and incense, giving way to dried cherries and sage. This is silky-smooth, with cooling acidity lifting its dense core of ripe red berry fruits as crunchy mineral tones resonate throughout. The 2022 finishes impossibly long and staining yet only gently tannic, leaving a lovely air of lavender and cloves that echoes on. Terre Nere continues to raise the bar with their Etna Rosso; it now has its own barrel-aging facility, which has allowed them to keep the wine in barrel between 14 to 16 months.”\u003cbr\u003e— 92+ Points, Eric Guido, Vinous\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e14% ABV\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Terre Nere","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41716132446341,"sku":"26909","price":49.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0318\/1137\/1141\/files\/KBWsgxMeTB6I3YY_cD6Gng_pb_600x600_9cb8c2c0-67ad-4e93-9e12-a5b6d22c6bd3.png?v=1781585386","url":"https:\/\/winedirect.co.nz\/products\/tenuta-delle-terre-nere-etna-rosso-2022","provider":"winedirect.co.nz","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
