#96 of the 2019 Top 100 - Wine Spectator for the 2017 vintage
‘’ A medium-bodied red, with a crisp tannic frame, this offers bright raspberry and strawberry fruit, revealing an underlay of fresh earth, spice and dried herb notes. Bright and elegant. Drink now through 2024. ‘’

This vintage comes from a mix of 3 different vineyards from both the north and south slope of Etna. A formidable fresher blend that is sanguine on the palate and full of character reminiscent of Burgundy. This vintage in particular is outstanding. The 80% of Nerello Cappuccio and Mascalese are harvested and vinified separately. Twenty percent of the Nerello Mascalese is aged in used barrels. The fruit was entirely destemmed and they bottle multiple lots per year.
