Lively ruby with light reflections. On the nose, aromas of violets, red berries, rhubarb, black cherries and a subtle hint of nutmeg. Exceptionally compact on the palate, with impressive acidity, fine fruit sweetness and perfectly formed tannin. Great freshness and energy, a salty vein in the long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2015 Etna Rosso Il Musmeci Riserva pulls you close with its sweetly scented bouquet of ripe strawberries and plum, dried flowers and a dusting of cinnamon and clove. It's silky and fleshy in feel, contrasted by a spicy display of tart wild berries and minerals, all balanced by zesty acids. Violet florals linger over a coating of dusty tannin as this tapers off structured yet persistent. The best is still to come for this incredibly pretty and seductive Nerello Mascalese." Vinous

"The Tenuta di Fessina 2015 Etna Rosso Riserva Il Musmeci is made with Nerello Mascalese and shows signs of a delicate and slow bottle evolution. The fruit is intact with dried cherry and soft plum, but aged notes of tar, smoky ash and cured tobacco have also started to set in. These are elegant results with tannic tightness at the back, made for a steak and creamy mushroom sauce. You could wait to drink this bottle, but it tastes great right now." Wine Advocate
