A pale red with notes of sour cherries, agrumes and almonds with dried herbs and some toffee. It’s medium-bodied with silky tannins. Very juicy and fresh with bright acidity and a taut texture. Delicious finish. Drink now.
From its translucent red color, you might think that the 2018 Etna Rosso Outis was a rosé. It presents a smoky bouquet of musky cherries, sweet spice and crushed rocks. This is soft yet lively, decidedly floral and buzzing with a mix of zesty acids and tart red berries. While a bit short, a twang of sour citrus and minerals keeps the mouth watering for more. This quirky blend of 80% Nerello Mascalese and 20% Nerello Cappuccio will excel at the dinner table, and preferably with a slight chill.
