Drink up. Dejlig moden vin. Meget svært at gætte. Fin gammel duft og smag. Alt er faldet på plads og intet stikker ud. Men er ved at miste pusten. Elegant og drikabel.

An absolute wow wine, couple that with the fact that it was just €28 off the list at San Giorgio e il Drago in Randazzo (honestly, where can you buy a perfectly aged, beautiful wine that's in its sweet spot just now for that kind of money - read: GET yourself to Sicily!). This was full of beautiful, savory, smokey tertiary notes with a gentle, almost feminine mixture of red and black fruits. The medium-bodied palate is full, dense, but also weightless thanks to loads of fresh acidity and fine tannic build. I could drink this every night - all the more reason to let your Nerello Mascalese/Etna wines get some good bottle age on them. highly recommended.

Fine Wines SG - Italian Varietal Wine Dinner - Nebbiolo, Sangiovese, Corvina, Aglianico, Nerello Mascalese (Porters Restaurant & Bar): Blackberry, mushrooms, and dried leaves, and somewhat spicy. Coffee and cocoa notes emerge after some 10 minutes in glass. Then later it seems to develop roasted corn and BBQ rub on the nose, somewhat like Twistys BBQ
