On the nose, it offers enticing aromas of red cherries, wild berries, and pomegranate, complemented by hints of dried herbs and a touch of smoky minerality. The palate is medium-bodied, with fine tannins and bright acidity, delivering flavors of red fruit, earthy undertones, and a subtle, savory edge. The finish is long and refined, with a mineral-driven character that speaks to its volcanic origins. This Etna Rosso pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, including roasted meats, mushroom risotto, grilled vegetables, and aged cheeses.
