Aromas and flavors blend blackberry, black cherry with those mineral notes and a delicate hint of wood. The complex, elegant mouthfeel balances with firm tannins and lively acidity to create a very long finish and a wine that has great potential for longevity.

There is so much red berry fruit here such as redcurrants and raspberries as well as more ripe notes of ash, tar, dried rose petals and spices. The palate is quite rich and dense yet very much kept fresh by tangy fruit and pretty acidity. Long finish. Drink now.

The estate wine showing the most medium or long-term potential, the Tornatore 2017 Etna Rosso Trimarchisa is Nerello Mascalese with a tiny touch of Nerello Cappuccio. Compared to the classic Etna Rosso from this same estate, this wine is richer and more fleshed out with wild berry, cassis and flinty notes of pencil shavings or campfire ash. The wine is well balanced and it shows some dark hot-vintage intensity on all sides with dark ripeness, medium textural richness and good length. Some 18 months of oak aging has also added volume to this expression from Contrada Trimarchisa. Production is 19,000 bottles.

Made with 95% Nerello Mascalese and 5% Nerello Cappuccio, this has aromas of underbrush, ripe berries, new leather and eucalyptus. The brawny palate offers blackberry jam, dried Morello cherry and star anise alongside assertive, close-grained tannins and the heat of evident alcohol. It closes on a saline note.
