Tasting Notes
The 2018 Etna Rosso Trimarchisa is elegant and savoury, offering aromas of wild strawberry, red cherry, and pomegranate layered with notes of dried herbs, volcanic ash, and spice. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins and bright acidity, showing red berry fruit, earthy complexity, and a distinctive mineral edge. Refined and structured, the finish is long, fresh, and lightly smoky, reflecting its volcanic origin.
