2021 Etna Rosato, Graci, Sicily

This rosato although beautiful and showing great purity currently, this wine has always aged beyond expectations and therefore marking it way above its peers. Orange blossom, pink grapefruit, and lemon citrus profile combine with a steeliness and saltiness on the palate. There is a restrained concentration that definess this wine.

Tasting notes

Very pale straw-orange color with aromas of cherry stones, pomelo pith, yellow plums and some dried flowers. Saline undertones. It's crisp and fresh, with a hint of tannin texture and medium body. Dry and focused. Nerello Mascalese. Drink now.

The Graci 2021 Etna Rosato (made with 100% Nerello Mascalese in stainless steel only) shows an exceptionally pale pink color. In fact, it's almost impossible to see any color at all if you are in a dimly-lit room. The wine feels tart and thin to the palate with hints of cassis, grapefruit and unripe peach. It ends with a pretty mineral dusting. Some 40,000 bottles were released.
