Love this! Earth, fruit, plants, herbs, volcano! So good with food. On its own there’s a lot of dried herbs, tart fruit, pepper, a bit of greenery, blood orange, flint, and still some dried fruit but not sweet at all. Will get some more. — a month ago

My new Favorite white, just love mountain fruit! Named for mountain range dividing Napa & Sonoma, old stone winery dug into side of dormant volcano crater in 1889, remained in production ever since. Pale lemon with aromas of Tropical and stone fruit with complex spice and floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and citrus with light oak and nutty tones, fresh and vibrant, well integrated. Long finish ending with fruit and flinty mineral characteristics. Long aging potential. Nice! — 2 years ago

Quite reduced at first, with lots of struck match and brimstone funk, but with some air this blossomed into a crunchy lean boysenberry and sour cherry medley mixed with chopped herbs and deeply stony minerality. Great acidity. Taste the volcano mateys! From the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands of Spain, this mostly Listan Prieto (aka Mission or Pais) with a little of Tintillo, red wine is light on the palate and quite refreshing. Sulfur is added only at bottling, otherwise this juice is simply put into old barrels to do its thing. — 4 years ago

I have a soft spot for this family-owned producer from Little known AVA in Tahama County, Northern California. Fine tannins, all fruit at this point-pleasant to drink and of course reasonably priced. 100% Petite Sirah from a low-yielding, higher altitude vineyard @ 2500 feet on the west slopes of Mount Lassen, the southernmost volcano in the Cascade mountains range. 14.4% abv — 5 months ago

As you open this wine you begin a trip to the arch of Italy’s boot. Although this southern, mountainous region has a few small vineyards under vine. The big red grape Aglianico is limited to the slopes of an extinct volcano Mount Vulture. Notes of blackberry, black cherry and wild herbs. Well-balanced and tamed. On hold for 5 years and it’s sensational. — 3 years ago

Needs decanting to open up. Earthy black currant flavor with sweet tangy finish. The vineyard is by a dormant volcano. — a year ago

Etna Rosso 😆 - wow, this has a beautiful bouquet, with notes of blood orange, orange blossom, cherry, strawberry, tomato leaf, and oregano 🌿

This wine comes from Sicily, Italy 🇮🇹 It is made of Nerello Mascalese grapes grown on Mount Etna, at 700 meters elevation, an active volcano, offering beautiful fruit expression and balance. It’s elegant and complex. ABV is 13.5%.

Thank you 🙏 @h_obf @sommnow for introducing us to this highly drinkable, smooth, and delicious bottle.
