"Dusty, slightly peppery, liquorice root, cherry and raspberry, a smattering of dried herb and orange peel. It’s medium-bodied, dusty tannin grip, ash and stones, distinctly volcanic character, blood orange and strawberry, plenty of dry tannin on an aromatic finish of fine length. No shortage of tannin here, which some may find a little too much, granted, but also freshness and personality"

"The 2021 Etna Rosso Sciare Vive is dark, dusty and floral, with a whiff of flowery underbrush that gives way to dried black cherries, mentholated herbs and animal musk. It's soft textured with a pleasant inner sweetness, mineral-tinged wild berry fruits and citrus tones that add a crunchy feel toward the close. A blend of wild strawberry and inner rose mingle over a coating of fine tannins."
