- Tasting notes
-
Light ruby red in colour, the Etna Rosso Doc Contrada Marchesa 2020 presents a fragrant bouquet with fruity hints
of redcurrants and cherries, balsamic notes and of aromatic herbs (rosemary and thyme) that blend with spicy notes of clove and forest floor. In the mouth, it stands out for its great balance between freshness and structure. The fine tannic texture enhances this cru, icon of volcanic elegance. - At the table
