The 2014 Etna Rosso Arcurìa shows a deep garnet color with dark ruby reflections. The bouquet offers immediate intensity in the form of ripe fruit, dark plum, cherry confit, spice and toasted chestnut. It shows roundness and softness that only comes in warm and long vintages, much like the trouble-free 2014 growing season. The finish is slightly sweet and chewy. The wine is almost too ripe for me (compared to the 2013 vintage), especially on the finish. I'm assigning a slightly shorter drinking window as a result. Some 8,900 bottles were produced.
