Note di degustazione
The lightly colored 2016 Etna Rosso Santo Spirito is a beautiful red that makes you salivate with its incredible minerality. Black cherries, blackberries, violets, and leafy herbs notes all flow to a medium-bodied effort that has nicely integrated acidity, beautiful balance, and a great finish. It’s lightly colored yet not light on intensity and has a singular, layered, beautiful style that’s going to evolve nicely for a decade or more.

The 2016 Etna Rosso Santo Spirito (98% Nerello Mascalese and 2% Nerello Cappuccio) shows a slightly more open and accessible style with purple fruit, wild berry, spice and grilled herb. You feel the warmth of the vintage and the even ripeness of the fruit. Yet, make no mistake, the wine is profoundly Burgundian in character, with delicate traces of dark mineral and ash woven throughout the wine's fine texture. The wine is graceful and almost fragile in disposition. Some 7,000 bottles were made.
Aromas of raspberries, lemons and fresh flowers follow through to a full-bodied yet very tight and linear palate with focus and intensity. Very long and beautiful. My favorite contrada this year. Drink in 2020.
