The 2009 Etna Rosso comes across as quite delicate and even fragile at times. Sweet herbs, dried cherries and flowers come together nicely in this mid-weight offering. It shows lovely inner perfume along with intensely floral notes that reappear on the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2015.
Pietro Caciorgna's wines from the slopes of the Etna continue to show notable improvement.
