James Suckling
Review Date: 06/2026Crunchy and fruity, showing sliced-strawberry, plum, crushed-stone and cement character on the palate with hints of smoke and basalt. Very typical for an Etna red. Drink now.

Staff Reviews

This is the wine that introduced the world to the modern elegance of Etna. A blend of old-vine Nerello Mascalese from various altitudes, it is the perfect snapshot of the vintage. The 2024 is bright, nervous, and aromatic, bursting with wild strawberry, ash, and dried herbs. It has the ethereal transparency of Pinot Noir but the tannic grip of Nebbiolo—the signature paradox of Etna Rosso.
Notes
The 2024 Passorosso is a bright and nervous snapshot of a vintage that found balance after a challenging 2023. Sourced from 80- to 110-year-old Nerello Mascalese vines across various altitudes (500–1,000m), it maintains the estate's signature "translucent" power. The nose is aromatic and piercing, bursting with wild strawberry, pomegranate, and red currant layered over volcanic ash, dried herbs, and a hint of camphor.
