Description
Still red wine from Etna DOC in Sicily, 13.5% ABV, produced by Alta Mora. 100% Nerello Mascalese, 2019 vintage. An Etna Rosso born on the slopes of the volcano, a wine that expresses the strength and elegance of a unique terroir. Essences of black cherry and plum embrace notes of violet and wild rose. Drapes of mint and eucalyptus embrace intersections of blackcurrant leaf and flint, followed by carob, black pepper, cocoa, and licorice. Light hints of cinchona and rhubarb. Smooth on the palate, freshness and savory balance with velvety tannins.
