The 2006 Etna Rosso Quota ‘600 is a pretty, ethereal wine redolent of candied cherries, sweet herbs, flowers and spices, all of which come together in a medium-bodied style. With a little more depth the wine could easily merit a higher score, but a measure of persistence is missing and some underlying notes of greenness detract from the balance. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2014.
