格拉西酒莊埃塔納紅葡萄酒

點擊次數：6885

A pure expression of Nerello Mascalese, the 2012 Etna Rosso shows a gorgeous garnet hue with brilliant ruby highlights. The color is healthy and saturated. Elegant and integrated aromas of dark fruit, ash, tobacco and spice are present in equal measure. Its texture is thickly woven and velvety in feel with firm, but well-managed tannins. A few more years in the bottle will soften up the fabric of the wine. Drink 2015-2022. The first generation of vintners on Etna, including Salvo Foti, Andrea Franchetti, Marco de Grazia with the Benanti and Cambria families, put the Sicilian volcano on a map of the world’s most promising viticulture zones. Now a second generation is in place: They are the so-called “Etna Boys” with Giuseppe Russo and Alberto Aiello Graci among the main protagonists. Given the historic value of Graci’s ancient cellars (built in an old palmento), important investments made and the overall quality of fruit produced at this estate, the Grace name is tightly linked to Etna excellence.
