The 2019 Etna Rosso blossoms with pretty rose notes, wild herbs and strawberries. It’s soft and enveloping, balancing a pleasant inner sweetness with energizing acidity and tart wild berries. A gentle layer of tannin adds lovely grip, as this finishes long with notes of licorice and blueberry skins. The 2019 is a harmonious beauty that has me seriously looking forward to tasting the single-vineyard wines of this vintage. 92 points

The entry-level 2019 Etna Rosso is light and informal with lots of raspberry, wild cherry and rose. The wine is delicate and fine but also shows volcanic and Etna character, but it`s made in an immediate and accessible manner. Fruit is harvested from a nine-hectare site located at 800 meters above sea level, and some 25,000 bottles were produced. Winemaking sees stainless steel and oak botte. 89 points
