Etna Rosso -Theresa Eccher 21' Sicily, IT
$44.00
Etna reds are all the rage as of late, not only in Sicily, but recognition of the fine Nerello Mascalese grapes produced on the rich volcanic soil of Mt. Etna is being gained worldwide. Theresa Eccher, an exquisite multi generation boutique winery nestled 800 meters above see level brings an elevated level of care and “Passione”, to every bottle they produce. This Enta Rosso in fact, in order to in their view, demonstrate in its purest form what this regions has to offer, have done a 100% stainless maturation process with final refinement done in bottle in order to capture the untainted unique quality of the grape. This is unique for such caliper of grapes/wine, whom almost always see some oak. They offer such an example as well, however upon hearing the argument made for not doing so, and having had the pleasure of tasting both, I have chosen to present this example to all of you. I’m saving you the tasting notes as a surprise. I absolutely love this wine. Enjoy!
