November 7, 2015 - Simple, smooth and easy drinking @ 12.5 degrees C straight from wine store. Might have opened with time at room temperature. Will check tomorrow night!

June 9, 2015 - One of my favourite Sicilian wines and a taste of what Etna has to offer without breaking the bank. Need to buy more soon.

October 31, 2014 - Holiday to Etna, Sicily, October 2014; 10/26/2014-11/1/2014: 3 months aged in barrique 3 in tonneaux, 3 in large barrels
Medium light body, ruby red, aromatic nose, cherry fruits nose, a little vanilla on the nose, quite a bit of fine tannin to coat the mouth, plenty of fruit too, maybe would improve with another year or so ? -
