The folks at Planeta had been hinting at making Pinot Nero on Etna for many years. Now, we finally get to taste this latest creation. The 2016 Pinot Nero Eruzione 1614 offers many happy surprises. First is the very strong varietal identity of the wine. The grape's natural characteristics outpace the evident intensity and energy of this volcanic territory. Indeed, this is among the most Burgundian expressions of the grape to come out of Italy (excluding Alto Adige perhaps). I am very pleased by the wine's purity and freshness. You get lots of little aromatic detailing here with cassis, wild berry, lilac, violet and (you guessed it) crushed volcanic rock. If you are obsessed with Pinot Noir, I highly recommend this all-Etna expression.
