Etna, Catania, Sicily, Italy
Great nose. Playful on the tung. Slight sting of alcohol super tart raspberry and white pepper and a touch of that smokey regional flavor. Volcanic soil. Slightly grippy but nothing crazy.

Smokey, dusky, smouldering red fruit
Light, lithe, possesses volcanicity - that sense of a wine that is airy like a pumice stone; Fine texture, it opens up to reveal a loose and fine structure.

Loved - light, earthy, minerally. Cool light side of Etna.

Light bodied and dry with lots of character. Good Sicilian wine with pasta at Bad Roman in NYC.
