Agree with @Chris MacLean : peppery. I’ve not had many wines like this, and loved the expansion of my experience. — 3 years ago

Second vintage of Ruston Family La Maestra Cabernet Sauvignon for us, not as expressive on the nose as the 2008 but with some more aged characteristics to it. Deep ruby red with a slight garnet edge. Lots of sweet spices and dark berries on the nose. Medium tannins (6/10) and medium to medium plus bodied. Layered palate with a spice kick to start, some earthy characteristics and dark berries. A little damp showing the age as well as some dark cocoa, dark gravel and iron too. Medium plus length finish. Needed around 30 minutes to open up but then started aging quite rapidly. Drink till 2018. — 8 years ago

Deep translucent ruby. Salty, smoky nose with strong iron/blood notes. Medium bodied with very nice grip. Pure red fruit. Good length. Clean and fresh and juicy. Balanced. Not as good as Etna pt 1 but still, love this style — 6 years ago

This wine is a pure expression of the 🌋 terroir of Cru Etna. Amazing aromatics combine with burnt cherry and dust. I haven’t met a Cru Etna I didn’t love. — 7 years ago

Same grape same winemaking. Spicier more red fruited than the Pianodario. Stemmy. Just... different. More tannin? Can’t decide which site I like better. Excellent study in terrior — 5 years ago

Nose of black cherry and pine straw. On the palate the flavors are the same, with great depth, structure, and length. This has a gravity that goes beyond most any Etna Rosso I’ve tasted. Phenomenal, and has years if not decades ahead of it... — 8 years ago
