Terre Nere Etna Rosso Guardiola 2021 Bottle size: 750ml

‘This has a dusty nose showcasing notes of vivid red cherries, candied orange peel and pomegranate skins with crushed terra-cotta brick and dried flowers. Textured and polished with dusty tannins that are evenly distributed across the palate and provide a mineral, granite-like presence on the palate, with attractive red fruit underneath. Tense and persistent.’ – James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, 95/100

‘Depths of black cherry, clove, sage, rosemary and ashen stone make resisting the 2021 ​​Etna Rosso Guardiola impossible. This is an especially lifted and mineral effort, with crisp raspberry and cranberry fruits that take on a crunchy sensation as they travel across the palate. Vibrant acidity maintains a lovely balance, cutting through the 2021’s silken textures like a hot knife through butter. This tapers off long, sinewy and structured, and yet the mouth is left watering for more. 2025-2033’ – Eric Guido, 93+/100

‘Fragrant and enticing, this draws you into the glass with its aromas and flavors of macerated raspberry, sassafras, eucalyptus, tarry smoke, red licorice and milled pepper. Firm and tightly meshed, yet still long and expressive, with a fresh, grippy finish. Drink now through 2036.’ – Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator, 93/100
