Singing cherry syrup on the nose, but you can smell a dusty undercurrent.

Similarly, the palate is beautifully clear, on onset, but then a bit of earthiness, and an explosion of tangy acidity, maybe with a touch of energizing acetic acid. It's light- to mid-bodied, but mouth-filling. Finishes with some fine but drying tannin. It's a food-friendly profile that is really useful and under-represented in wines in the US.

A light and refreshing wine with some elegance - we get a lot of fresh fruit - it is cherries, cranberries and red currant - we also got some roses - a well balanced wine with medium tannins and acidity we will start with solid 92 - but clearly see potential.

Elegant cranberry and strawberry fruit but almost hidden behind a powerful intensity and acidity.
It will improve highly over time and would benefit for at least 5 years aging. It does however still taste amazing, even with the slightly subdued aromatics.
Absolutely stunning wine.

Ein sehr zugänglicher Wein mit viel Trinkfluss.

Color is clear straw with flecks of light green. Mineral and matchstick on the nose, along with lean lemon, mineral and grapefruit. There is also a note of toast. On the palate, the acidity is moderate and measured, merging nicely with minerals and salinity. Finishes with good length, nice tart minerals, dried lemon and lemon rind. The lingering finish is mouthwatering and has a subtle chewiness. An excellent food white that improved nicely in the glass.

Italian Wine Scholar Class at The Texas Wine School. 100% Nerello Mascalese from the North side of Etna at approx. 2000' altitude. Med (-) ruby, with enticing aromas of red raspberry, red cherry, purple flowers, black plum, Mediterranean herbs and earth. Aged in cement and large neutral oak vats. Dry but sufficiently fruit-forward, with a pleasant crispness and freshness thanks to the altitude. Med to med (+) acidity, chalky tannins and alcohol (actually 14% but seems a little lower). Med (+) body and flavor intensity w/ a pleasantly saline and mineral finish. Well-balanced, versatile and a good value in the increasingly popular Etna category. Drink now or for the next several years, but IMHO not one for long-term aging since one of its appeals is the immediacy of the fruit.

Ruby red colour with red brim. Nose is developed, mature, mineral with a volcanic touch to it and with notes of red fruit such as cherries. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, mature, mineral, with fine-grained tannins, nice acidity and notes of red fruit such as cherries, with nice length.

Quite typical for Etna, I think, with this mineral, volcanic touch to it. Nice development, will probably not get better from here.

Ce nerello mascalese exhibe une robe grenat modérément profonde. Aussi bien au nez qu’en bouche, il dégage de jolies flaveurs d’amande, de pain grillé, de prune noir, de figue et de cassis. En bouche, les saveurs de ce nectar volcanique composent une symphonie gustative harmonieuse et inspirée. Équilibré, complexe, concentré et doté d’une finale s’étirant sur de nombreuses et délicieuses caudalies, ce vin raconte une belle histoire. Je suis tout ouïe.

Lovely and fresh cherry fruit with a touch of oranges, black tea and dark spices.
Lovely and vibrant acidity with a medium-low aftertaste but only a slight tannic touch. Very nice wine..

Nose: light red fruit, melon?? , mineral, herb, smoke
Palate: sweet red cherry, mineral, light tanin and smoky length.

Nose was muted. Palate was really ‘tasty’ and I kept coming back for more. The subtle red fruit backed up with very interesting tannin and length. Loved it despite the muted nose.

Etna Rosso: - darker Ruby in the glass, got a meaty funky to the nose, but on the palate fades away. A bit tart, not the smoothest.

I just had a glass of the 2013, and the differences between these two wines are pronounced - blind, there is no way that I would guess they were siblings. This has a deeper toned nose with both red & black fruit, and even a little funk lurking in the background.

More expansive on the palate as well - medium-bodied. These are both 100% Nerello Mascalese, so I'm guessing the only difference here is due to the vintage, but it is surprising, at least to me, to try these wines side-by-side and see how little they have in common.

This has been fairly consistent since I purchased it - light-bodied on the palate, slight astringency on the finish, red fruit on both the nose and palate. Likable enough, if less than stellar. It doesn't feel tired, but I also don't see a lot of additional upside if one continues to hold.

WineEP Etna lunch (Terra Rossa): Relatively restrained, funky nose, which filled out with more red fruit with exposure to air. Silky and elegant on the palate, with some characteristically bitter, chewy red fruit. Grippy on the finish, which I'd have liked to be a little longer. A good wine, but lacked the excitement of some of today's other reds. I'm not sure whether it needs more time, or there's limited upside.

Love the understatement on this one. Savoury, with echoes of cherry fruit. It has light florals, some gentle chew and and a calm black tea note. It is balanced, clean, bright and beautifully proportioned.

Didn’t have high hopes due to a recent, underwhelming experience with a 2020. The 2018 though is far better. No shit it tastes like a really good negroni.

NWS Sicily Tasting: Pale lemon colour, medium+ intensity nose of flint, minerality, smoke, lemon, lime, melon. Pronounced, rich palate adding apple flavours. High acid drives a steely, medium body. Long, elegant finish.

This was nice, showing flinty mineral and citrus notes, but as some seem to be suggesting below, somewhat simple compared to expectations from prior vintages. Nevertheless, certainly enjoyable over three nights.

Really nice, with a sexy perfume; probably the second-best wine we had in the Etna area. More full-bodied than many Etna rossos, slightly raw and stemmy, with good structure and depth of fruit, and sure to improve even though it was already delicious.
