TENUTA DELLE TERRE NERE ETNA ROSSO MOGANAZZI 2024 750ML 2024

(11/17/2020) "Complex aromas of ripe berries with toffee, cedar and some floral undertones. Hot ash as well. The palate is full-bodied, but tight and linear with a chewy palate and lots of dried-peach and orange-peel undertones to the ripe fruit, but always linear and focused. Try after 2022."

(6/2021) "A captivating display of black cherry and raspberry encased in a cloud of ashen earth, incense and crushed dried roses lifts up from the remarkably pretty 2018 Etna Rosso Moganazzi. It's silky in texture, energized by vibrant acidity, as violet-tinged wild berry fruits and sweet spices cascade across the senses. This is so graceful but also packed full of unseen depths, and the palate aches with youthful tension and poise throughout the long, dramatic finale. You can't help but return to the glass over and over again. The Moganazzi hails from steeply terraced 80-year-old vines on the north side of Etna, at roughly 700 meters in elevation. It's a showstopper. Drinking Window: 2022 - 2028."

(2/28/2021) "An elegant red, lightly juicy and plush on the palate, with flavors of pureed cherry and raspberry accented by dried thyme, iron and citrus notes and a zesty underpinning. Sculpted tannins firm the finish. Drink now through 2028. 333 cases made, 100 cases imported."
