The 2021 Etna Rosso is darkly floral. Crushed violets combine with rose petals, lavender and citrus-spiked blackberries. It’s silky smooth, round and supple, with juicy acidity and masses of ripe red and blue fruits that swirl throughout. This tapers off on a note of refinement, gently tannic and long as black cherry and ground clove nuances resonate. While already a pleasure to enjoy today, the 2021 possesses the balance to excel through cellaring.
