Serra della Contessa Etna Rosso Nerello Blend 2012

Served blind . Arrogantly said after a quick smell & taste, Burgundy from 2018 , high quality village wine. WRONG! Beautiful flavors of cherry, earth and mineral. Pepper red fruits, herbs and mouthwatering acid attacked my palate. Still has structure to endure for years. — 8 months ago

Mt Etna is the new Burgundy of the Mediterranean. Check out this story we produce a few months back of Terre Nere, crafting beautiful expressive vibrant yet complex wines from single sites on My Etna using Nerello Mascalese. https://youtu.be/iCKe8UoZ-Jk?si=-6EAUc9EvM-Nl1Uc

Allegracore Etna Rosso DOC Nerello Mascalese-Nerello Cappuccio Blend 2013

Light body and very "Pinot Noir" like. Bright red cherry and strawberry flavors. Mild tannins and light oak. Hint of smoke. Refreshing. Chill it a bit below cellar temp. Great story about the winery. A Mt. Etna lava flow just went around them 30 years ago. — 10 years ago

After tasting next to other organic/low intervention wines, the structure and finesse of this wine becomes more evident. Smooth red and dark fruit on the palate with good but no overwhelming acidity. Drinks like a wine from a colder climate. — 7 months ago

Munjebel Terre Siciliane Bianco Carricante Blend 2021

Cult winery from Sicily. But the guy is Belgian. Orange wine I think - So flavorful, apples, stone-fruit, honey and most of all a ton of JASMINE. I love it. But not everyone’s cup of tea. — 2 years ago

Cusumano

Sicilia Nero d'Avola 2023

Light garnet color with a dark ruby core., Aromas of ripe black fruit, asphalt and fresh herbs. Flavors of blackberries, black plums, black tea, black pepper and dark figs. Touch of mint on the medium-plus finish. Firm chalky tannins and nicely balanced acidity. Complex, elegant and flavorful. Thanks for opening, Chris B! — 8 months ago

Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese 2018

2018 vintage.
100 % Nerello Mascalese grown organically on the northern slopes of Mount Etna at 600 meters above sea level. This wine is made to drink young.
Pale, bright cherry in colour with mineral notes of berries and dry brush. Cleansing acidity with flavours of earthy, crunchy red fruit and crisp strawberries.
