Benanti Rovittello Particella No. 341 Alberello Centenario 2015

Red
Etna, Italy
8.5
WineSaint

Dense and brooding with wild cherry, violet and earthy spice building powerfully. The palate shows impressive concentration, though firm tannins and mineral tension keep everything tightly wound. This centenarian-vine bottling needs serious time. The structure suggests greatness but demands patience through 2023.
