Girolamo Russo
Feudo Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese - Nerello Cappuccio
Etna, Catania, Sicily, Italy
Tawny rim showing aged appearance. The varnishy wood apparent once again - more obvious in lighter bodied reds like this and Pinot Noir. In Barrels for 3 years. Showing signs of premature ageing.

One of the best wines I've had all year. Russo continues to impress.

Sep 17th, 2015Quite meaty and smokey, a definite gamey finish with a hint of chocolate but still with some delicate aromas coming through, delicious.

Dec 14th, 2015Oh yeah. Medium minus, but complex. Cherries and wet soil on the nose. Super zingy immediately on the palate. Beautiful elegant finish. A bit sterile-tasting but otherwise awesome
