Wine Review
- Agosto 2022Terra Costantino 2021 deAetna Rosato Etna DOC 93
Our favorite Italian rosato from the 2021 vintage, this wine is sourced from the volcanic soils of Mt Etna. Pale peachy salmon color. A phenolic, mouth filling wine, firmly structured and densely flavored with a very long, rich and dry finish. Wild strawberries, red apple, and ripe cherry all put in an appearance. Superb.Hand picked 90% Nerello Mascalese and 10% Nerello Cappuccio 40 year old vines grown at 500m at the Contrada Blandano on the southeast slope of Mt Etna. Fermented and matured on the fine lees in steel vats. 13% alc. The enologist is Luca D’Attoma.
