The 2022 Etna Rosso tempts the imagination as depths of crushed raspberry come together with rose petals, ground cloves, sage leaf and incense to form its truly captivating bouquet. This is elegant and softly contoured, with silky textures and ripe wild berry fruits that swirl throughout. A core of brilliant acidity and tactile mineral tones builds tension toward the close. It leaves a pleasantly bitter tinge to linger on while tapering off with a coating of fine tannins, hints of licorice and a sensation of liquid stone. (EG)

There's a lovely, fragrant underpinning of tar-tinged smoke and Turkish spices wafting through the flavors of dried cherry and raspberry, red licorice, and macchia. Backed by vivid acidity and firm, snappy tannins, this is well-structured and harmonious, with a lasting, mineral-laced finish. Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio. Best from 2027 through 2032.
