PRACTICING ORGANIC FARMING
80% Nerello Mascalese, 20% Nerello Cappuccio
"The 2022 Etna Rosso wafts up with a perfumed blend of rosy florals and hints of juniper berry. This is vividly fruit-focused, with a wave of ripe wild berries and sweet spices that flow across a stream of brisk acidity. It leaves a staining of primary concentration and mildly grippy tannins to resonate as violet inner florals slowly fade. While more extroverted than expected, the 2022 is a total pleasure to taste and maintains fantastic balance. " - Eric Guido, VINOUS MEDIA
Benanti is a historic winery for the Etna area, with a minimal-interventionist style, which focuses on an honest expression of the Nerello grapes in this unique terrain. Only around 20% of the wine was aged in previously-used, small French oak barrels, the rest in stainless steel.
