the 14 is odd and different than her other vintages but is changing in compelling and surprising ways - like a child that goes down strange and meandering paths only to travel themselves to a place where they flourish and become the genius that they were destined to be

I liked this vintage much more than I have previously. Oak more restrained and the volcanic notes more pronounced, still a bit loose and juicy, but a strong effort/result.

Etna Rosso is hard to find in Miami. Glad to have this. Delicious.

Shipped this little gem home from Sicily! I was pleasantly surprised by its jammy, Pinot noir flavor, with a very subtle cherry taste. Not too dry or sweet.

Bright acidity right up front. Cherry, and soft tannins

Light, clear purple hue, medium body. Pleasant flavor profile, but not much complexity to the finish.

Held up well with all the different foods we ate. Not a heavy wine but with lots of flavor.
