  March 3, 2013 - The nose showed intense cherry and cranberry sauce with exotic spices, menthol, mountain herbs and just the perfect hint of barnyard. On the palate notes of cranberry, raspberry, dark chocolate and black licorice saturated the tastebuds with a rich textural mouthfeel and zesty acidity that kept it fresh and lively. The finish was long with palate staining fruits as hints of fragrant herbs filled the senses.
  
  This was big and rich yet fresh and zesty with all the Etna character I crave. I enjoyed it quite a bit and highly recommend it.
