Vibrant ruby colour with light highlights. Aromas of violets, red berries, rhubarb, black cherries and a subtle hint of nutmeg on the nose. Exceptionally compact on the palate, with impressive acidity, fine fruit sweetness and perfectly moulded tannins. Great freshness and energy, with a savoury vein on the long finish. The best is yet to come from this incredibly beautiful and seductive Nerello Mascalese. SUPERIORE.DE

"Some of the vines are over 120 years old and therefore date back to pre-phylloxera times. Complex and multi-layered bouquet with red berries (cherry), flowers, but also leather and tobacco, redcurrants, wild berries, touches of aniseed and flint. On the palate with clear freshness and precise structure, super energetic and powerful, again with crisp red berries, fresh and animating, with ripe, finely polished tannins, infused with a salty vein." Weinwisser

"Quite reduced at first, leather giving way to strawberries and cherries. Medium-bodied, this has crisp acidity and firm, large-grained tannins. Not bitter in the finish. Austere but good." James Suckling

"The 2022 Etna Rosso Il Musmeci is dusty and savory in the glass, revealing a burst of crushed stones that gives way to ground cloves, ginger and dried strawberries. Succulent red berry fruit floods the palate, guided by zesty acidity as a silken textural wave leads to a staining of minerals and fine tannins toward the close. Hints of blood orange linger through the long and structured finale as the 2022 tapers off with dramatic length. This is still youthfully coiled." Vinous
