Benanti releases wines from previous vintages to show the impressive aging potential of Mount Etna. This blend of Nerello Mascalese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Nero d’Avola offers currant and candied fruit aromas backed by soft spice and crushed granite. ——M.L.(4/1/2012)—— 90

Lamoremio is a blend of Nerello Mascalese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Nero d’Avola in equal parts that tastes of Indian spice, clove, sweet cinnamon and blackberry. You’ll also get a touch of caper or green olive that rides on the heels of the wine’s smooth, supple mouthfeel.——M.L.(12/1/2009)—— 90

Here is an elegant blend of Nerello Mascalese, Nero D’Avola and Cabernet Sauvignon from one of Sicily’s most innovative producers. Blending delicate Nerello with two powerful grapes might seem like a mismatch but Benanti pulls it off. The aromas point to beautiful evolution in the bottle: forest floor, espresso, toasted almond and cola all come forth.——M.L.(2/1/2009)—— 89

This is a carefully crafted volcanic wine (1/3 each Nerello Mascalese, Nero d’Avola and Cab Sauvignon) with bright red fruit and cherry embellished by notes of forest floor, charcoal and some Band-Aid. Good fruit flavors and firm tannins create a very nice overall effect. Aged 18 months in French oak. Imported by Vino Bravo. ——M.L.(7/1/2006)—— 89
