Tenuta delle Terre Nere Feudo di Mezzo Etna Rosso | Il Quadro delle Rose 2018 / 750 ml.

Note: The image above may display a previous vintage of this item.
Item#: 52815
Graphite, thyme, brambly berry and violet aromas waft out of the glass along with Mediterranean scrub. Boasting youthful tension, the chiseled palate delivers succulent Marasca cherry, crushed raspberry, licorice and coffee bean set against elegant, fine-grained tannins. Bright acidity keeps it balanced while a hint of saline lingers on the close. Drink through 2033.
The 2018 Etna Rosso Feudo di Mezzo is dark and rich in the glass, wafting up with notes of cherry sauce, plums and Indian spice. It is deeply textural and velvety in feel, with ripe black instead of red notes, lifted by cooling mineral and minty herbs. There’s an almost balsamic twang to the finish, as this leaves the palate drenched in primary fruit and grippy tannins. The Feudo di Mezzo is a bit of a bruiser in 2018, yet a few years of cellaring should help bring it into focus.

Where It's From
Country / Italy
Italy is famous for its powerful, sleek, and elegant reds wines from ancient growing areas with legendary names such as Chianti, Barolo, Barbaresco, Montepulciano. Italian white wines are also gaining popularity: Orvieto, Pinot Grigio, and Sauvignon are excellent examples of Italian white wines.
Wines of Italy are complex and flavorful, much like the culture that is their source and the cuisine that is their match.

Fragrant blue flower, underbrush, wild berry and Mediterranean brush aromas form the nose on this vibrant red, grown on high altitude slopes. The tense, racy palate offers sour cherry, orange zest and star anise alongside taut, fine-grained tannins and an acidic backbone. Drink 2022–2030.
Like entering a shop selling exotic teas, spices, incense and dried flowers, 2018 Etna Rosso Guardiola holds your attention firmly. There’s a wonderful purity to its tart red fruits, yet also a lifted and feminine feel, as inner rose notes amass over a layer of youthful grippy tannins. Hints of licorice and cherry linger through the long and structured finale. The 2018 Guardiola should take on more weight with cellaring, yet I honestly wonder if its fruit can stand the test of time.

This shows a very attractive, savory character with red cherries and raspberries, accompanied with dried summer herbs, candied orange and red spices. Dry earth, too. Medium- to full-bodied. Very even and seamless tannin structure. Refined and polished with a dusty earthiness that leads to a dry, delicate finish. Drink or hold. (James Suckling)

Item #: 58243
Aromas of stone, clay, orange peel, dried sage, baked red cherry and moss. Medium-to full-bodied with tense tannins that drive the palate and keep all of the complex fruit, mineral and herbal notes in line. So much to unpack. There’s depth, intensity and complexity, all in line with one another. Pine cone at the end. From organically grown grapes. Made from two parcels of ungrafted old vines in Contrada Calderara Sottana. Best from 2025.
A fresh, elegant and seamlessly knit red, with aromatic tea rose and anise hyssop notes, an expansive profile of pureed raspberry and cherry fruit, woodsy spices and a subtle underpinning of minerally smoke and stone. The lasting finish is firmed by fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2035. 245 cases made, 70 cases imported. (Alison Napjus)

The 2022 Rosato Etna is understated and delicate, with dried strawberry and dusty florals forming its bouquet. This shows a pretty inner sweetness up front that gives way to crisp orchard fruits and spice. It finishes a bit dry, yet clean, with a saline-tinge that slowly tapers off. (Eric Guido)
