2022 Etna Rosso, Moganazzi, Tenuta delle Terre Nere

The 2022 Etna Rosso Moganazzi is dusty, floral and lifted, with an air of confectionary spices and chalk dust that gives way to dried black cherries. This is round and supple, with a lavender-laced blend of red and blue fruits that swirl across a stream of brisk acidity. Grippy tannins come forward through the finale as the 2022 tapers off long and perfumed. A dusting of violet candies punctuates the experience beautifully. ~ (94) Eric Guido, Vinous 3-1-2024
