WineSaint

Deeper and more muscular than most Etna expressions. Wild cherry and pomegranate merge with ash and orange peel in a wine that shows impressive concentration. The palate delivers serious structure. Firm tannins anchor waves of red fruit while bright acidity keeps everything in balance. Built for the cellar. Drink 2028-2035.
