2019 Etna Rosso

The organic Tenuta delle Terre Nere 2019 Etna Rosso is a pretty, albeit informal, expression of Nerello Mascalese. The bouquet offers cassis and plenty of wild rose, with crushed stone and volcanic ash. This wine is built in a lean, mid-weight style; however, fruit in the 2019 vintage shows more richness and concentration overall. Indeed, this edition wears slightly more fruit weight with soft cherry and blackberry at the back. This is a great Etna Rosso to drink young while those primary tones are so nicely preserved.
