Tenuta delle Terre Nere Etna Rosso 2014

Bright and translucid ruby color. Nose of red berries with some green notes, earth and ashes. Good acidity level without being razor sharp, very fresh and never the alcohol level was an issue other than the smile that came in our faces. Was almost drinking like a Beaujolais! Same flavor profile with just enough concentration, balance and ends in a flavorfull finish. Drank quite rapidly! Very good+ (90)
