“Reseca” Rosso Etna DOC 2016 (BIO)

Az. Agr. Gulfi | Sicily
Az. Agr. Gulfi | Corso da Patria sn | IT 97012 Chiaramonte Gulfi

Sweet cherries, dried flowers, liquorice and spices on the nose. The elegant style continues on the palate with silky tannin and restraint in all components. A medium-bodied, prancing red with all the "Burgundian" advantages of the volcanic terroir from Etna. SUPERIORE.DE

"Made with organic fruit, the Gulfi 2016 Etna Rosso Reseca is 100% Nerello Mascalese drawn from a 1.5-hectare vineyard located at a steep 800 meters above sea level on the blackened cone of the volcano. The wine delivers both power and grace, or the two contrasting qualities that define the great wines of Etna. This vintage reveals intact primary intensity and doesn't immediately show the age of this late-release Etna red. Indeed, the classic 2016 vintage is rather timeless in that way. That fresh fruit should carry this wine easily up to the 10-year mark and probably beyond." Robert Parker

"At once fragrant and savory, with sour-cherry and redcurrant fruit, this generous and fresh Etna red has a solid base of healthy tannins that have just softened to the point where it gives a lot of pleasure. Interesting interplay of delicate coffee and mineral at the very satisfying finish. This has many years ahead of it." James Suckling
