Tornatore Etna Rosso

The Tornatore Etna Rosso is a uniquely rich and focused wine made entirely of the indigenous Nerello Mascalese grape. It expresses itself with aromas of cherry juice and preserves, wild strawberry, and a very characteristic volcanic and mineral intensity that is unique only to the wines of Mt. Etna's volcanic soil.Winemakers Notes: Tornatore Etna Rosso is a ruby red wine with a faint purple color, a typical trait of the Nerello Mascalese variety, which is not known for its rich color. The wine has notes of macerated strawberries and raspberries, morello cherries, and black plum, which blend with subtle hints of herbs and earth. Surprisingly full in structure, fine tannins, and bright acidity give the wine richness, complexity, and persistence. This Italian red wine is appellated from Etna Rosso DOC and is 95% Nerello Mascalese and 5% Nerello Cappuccio.
