Cherries. Plums. Berries. Tons of red fruit with so much acid and earth. Minerality through the roof like Burgundy. With accompanying acid. And some tannin that really sticks around. Love this wine. — 9 years ago

First time having this bottling and it was quite enjoyable. A pleasant surprise.

Wines from Sicily have come up in quality and are deserving of more world attention.

9.1

Popped and poured; enjoyed over a 90 minute period. No formal notes. Slightly deeper in color than the Benanti enjoyed before and there’s a bit more depth in general when comparing the two. Ripe strawberries and cherries. Savory. Good structure. Drinking well now but this has the stuffing to mature gracefully over the next decade. — 2 years ago

9.0

Rose petals and dried herbs with a big aroma of rich cherry and balsamic. Comes off very rich and a little boozy (vintage?), much more than Benanti. Some astringency too for a wine usually very well balanced. Still a hallmark producer for Etna wine. Maybe a little time to rest would do well — 4 years ago
