Tasting Notes
The Etna Rosso “Calderara Sottana” has a penetrating bouquet, rich ripe fruit and spice. Structured, full and complex, with rich tannic feel. - Importer Note
Winery Note:
The white grapes were a mumbo-jumbo of local varieties: Carricante, Catarratto, Grecanico, Inzolia and Minnella. So that's what my Etna Bianco was: a field blend of all the above, with Carricante dominating the blend with roughly 65%. And that's what it still is. All from old vines. And, somehow, it works. Deviously drinkable, still it always clings.
