(11/2018) The show-stopper from our recent Winemaker Dinner with Acille Alessi! This is their most-ambitious wine, the only one coming from the precipitous slopes of Etna, from a vineyard first planted nearly 90 years ago! A powerful wine, but with an ethereal nature and a lighter tone in the glass. Red berries, savory spice, mushroom, leather and red florals - a complex young wine! If it makes you think of Barolo from the North or finely-structured Pinot Noir, you are not alone. Alessi's version packs a bit more power and weight than many in its price arena, and using 15% Nerello Cappuccio provides the wine with a bit more color than otherwise achieved with the noble Nerello Mascalese on its own. This was the most popular wine of the evening, one that makes fine friends at the dinner table with gamier dishes and fine cheeses - and will see itself to its 10th birthday and beyond with aplomb.
