The 2017 Etna Rosso Carusu is 80% Nerello Mascalese and 20% Nerello Cappuccio that has seen a brief six months in tonneaux. The wine is simple and bright with quite a few hot-vintage accents that recall dark cherry and wild plum. The wine sports medium-rich fruit weight with rich tannins and more concentration than we’ve seen in previous editions.
