Tenuta di Passopisciaro Passorosso 2018 is a medium-bodied red wine produced from Nerello Mascalese grapes in the Etna region of Sicily. Produced from a blend of very old-vine Nerello Mascalese from different altitudes and lava flows around Mount Etna, Passorosso is aged in large, neutral oak barrels, offering a pure-fruited interpretation of this indigenous Etna grape variety. Producer note. "Red berry, baking spice and a balsamic whiff of camphor lead the nose. On the racy, linear palate, firm acidity and polished tannins accompany sour cherry, orange zest, mineral and aniseed. Taut, refined tannins balance the vibrant energy. Drink through 2026."
