Alta Mora Etna Rosso 2017

Sicily, ItalyAlta Mora belongs to the Cusumano family, and was the chance to fulfill a lifelong dream for the Cusumano brothers. This nerello mascalese comes from the high altitude, black, dynamic soils on the slopes of active Mount Etna, reflected in the name of the winery (Alta Mora). The vineyards are planted up to 1000m. After a month-long maceration and ferment, this finished MLF in stainless before heading to 2000L barrels for a short stint. Beauty herbal plum, boysenberry rides the fresh, medium palate, with fine, long, lightly grippy and well integrated tannins framing this to a spiced finish. Ample freshness and verve for its 14%.Tasted: 29 November 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
