Rush of raspberry pastille, cherry and dried herb aromas, palate is all about bright, tart red fruit with just a touch of pleasing bitter tea leaf and tannin on the finish. The epitome of a food wine and tremendous value

Much softer and sweeter than previous vintages. Cranberry and herbs with some firm tannin structure.

Light body, herbs, cooked fruit, very mellow tannins. Lovely and balanced.

First Etna Rossi. From Total Wine aNd More. Fruity and lite. Worth having around and exploring more.

Incisive, bright and at the nexus of red and dark fruits. Has that volcanic mineral spirit to it. Long decant and it barely budged. Not unapproachable but could use a few years

This is a food wine. A perfect food/wine match with any rustic Italian dish. Do you like Alla Puttanesca? Then here's your wine. (The wine can easily be found for $20. That $45 Buy suggestion...silly.)

Paid $19.99

So far I like it.

After 15min, noticeable change in texture to a little tacky. Stilllike it, though

Sweet strawberry, pepper, and ash in the nose. Strong but pleasant acidity. 🌋
