The 2011 Etna Rosso (90-10 Nerellos Mascalese and Cappuccio aged in both barrique and botte grande) is an elegant and streamlined Sicilian red. In Pinot Nero style, the bouquet is bright and generous with mineral tones, dried fruit and red rose petal. In the mouth, the wine shows restraint and a lean, compact texture. It is not without power however. Although there isn't much pulp here, the finish is long and silky.
