Benanti Etna Rosso Riserva Rovittello Particella No. 341 2018

Etna, Italy

WineSaint

Dark cherry and wild berries drive this structured Riserva, laced with cedar and bitter chocolate. The palate shows impressive finesse despite a challenging vintage, with silky textures wrapped around firm, mineral-driven tannins. Burnt orange and spice build through the mid-palate before a long, pleasantly astringent finish. Needs 3-5 years to fully integrate.
