94 Monica Larner - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The Buscemi 2024 Etna Rosso, with twin red donkeys featured on the front label, is 100% Nerello Mascalese from selected vineyards on the northern slope of Etna. The wine is beautifully light in appearance with a subtle ruby shine. The bouquet opens to wild rose, lilac, whole peppercorn, spice and dried mountain herbs, followed by subtle notes of cassis and pomegranate. This is a very pretty expression that shows an especially elegant and delicate side of the grape. These are exciting results.
