Darkly floral and complex, the 2021 Etna Rosso opens in the glass with an alluring blend of dusty violets and lavender, giving way to sweet smoke and dried blueberries. This is silky-smooth and refined, with polished red fruits offset by sour citrus and a savory herbal flourish toward the close. The 2021 keeps the energy high, finishing crisp and lively with a cranberry crunch and cedary spice. The Rosso from Tenuta delle Terre Nere remains a great value for first-class Etna juice.
