Ruby garnet colour, fine notes of violets and roses and lots of spices on the nose. Dense and compact with taut tannins and sweet fruit flavours. Given time, this captivating red is at the beginning of a long, promising development. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fine, clear bouquet reminiscent of Burgundy with sweet red berries, grenadine, wild cherry and earthy-floral nuances. Juicy red fruit and sweet spices on the palate, already quite accessible, spanned by a fine, juicy acidity. A finesse-rich final." Weinwisser

"Medium, bright ruby red with garnet reflections. Ripe, delicate redcurrant and pomegranate fruit on the nose, with a hint of rosehip, accompanied by violets and black pepper. Very juicy on the palate with animating freshness, filigree tannins and a lingering, tense final with a mineral aftertaste." Falstaff

"A complex nose of almost vermouth-like aromas, dried cherries, cinnamon, oak bark, rich black cherries and hints of smoke. Firm tannin and acidity with a full body, a tight-knit finish and restrained toastiness in the aftertaste." James Suckling

"The 2022 Etna Rosso Contrada Sciaranuova is youthfully coy, with a dusty blend of dried flowers, earth tones and ash wafting up from the glass. Silky yet lifted and finessed, it sweeps across the palate with medium-weight textures and bright red berry fruits. Its minerality comes through on the finish, enhanced by a bump of brilliant acidity as it tapers off long, staining and with crunchy tannins that resonate on. Utterly classic. While backward today, the Sciaranuova is harmonious and shows incredible potential." Vinous
