Valcerasa (Alice Bonaccorsi) Etna Rosso 2018
The Wine
Mostly Nerello Mascalese with a little Nerello Cappuccio from the Bonaccorsi vineyards in Randazzo. Fermentation and maceration on skins in stainless steel, then ageing in old barriques.
Burgundy is the first thing that comes to mind as it jolts the senses. It's a wine that's always released with some age—hallelujah! From the first sip, it declares its quality. Nothing seems out of place; it's understated yet envelops every crevice of the palate. It exists in both the physical and spiritual realms. With multi-layered complexity, it showcases soft, plush red fruits with a complementary undercurrent of 'Etna' volcanic minerality. TC
