Benanti, Etna Rosso, 2023
Volcanic Sicilian Pinot Noir, if you'll allow the analogy — bright, savory, and built for the table. Benanti is one of Etna's most respected estates: Giuseppe Benanti put modern Etna on the world wine map in the late 1980s, and sons Antonio and Salvino now run the property. The estate Etna Rosso is the appellation-level entry to the range — Nerello Mascalese with a small portion of Nerello Cappuccio from volcanic soils rich in ash and minerals, fermented with native yeasts and aged in a mix of stainless steel and used French oak to preserve freshness. 2023 was a long, moderate vintage that allowed slow, even ripening and excellent aromatic development. Vibrant, food-friendly Etna at the price-to-pleasure sweet spot of the appellation.
