Benanti Etna Rosso Contrada Calderara Sottana 2022

Red
Etna, Italy
8.0
WineSaint

Rich blueberry and ash aromas capture this contrada's volcanic terroir with precision. The palate shows beautiful contrast. Plush fruit entry gives way to serious mineral backbone and mounting tannins. Exotic spices weave through the finish with lasting violet notes. Built for the cellar with exceptional aging potential.
