Tasting notes
The 2021 Etna Rosso Feudo is a deep ruby hue and is inviting with raspberry liqueur, fresh sage, wildflowers, and crushed stones. Sourced from Feudo, Caldera Sottana, and San Lorenzo, this wine is medium-bodied and fleshy on the palate, featuring ripe tannins, refreshing acidity, and a long finish. It's a fantastic wine to drink now or over the next 10-12 years.

The 2021 Etna Rosso Feudo is dark and brooding in the glass, slowly unfurling with an enticing mix of dried black cherries, incense, clove and crushed ashen stones. This sweeps across the palate with velvety textures, quickly firming up as masses of black raspberry and salty minerals saturate. Edgy tannins linger along with an enlivening bump of vibrant acidity, keeping the mouth watering despite the 2021's youthfully structured state. The balance of power and elegance here is utterly spellbinding.
The 2021 Etna Rosso Feudo is a bit more accessible overall, but I love the way the bouquet and the mouthfeel play out in this vintage. The wine offers precision and clean linearity. Fruit comes from 70-year-old vines, and the aromas are nuanced and delicate with wild fruit, rose and crushed flint. The finish is extremely smooth and silky with melting tannins.
