"Notes of wild strawberries and pink nectarines with hints of cherry blossoms. Crisp and minerally on the palate with a medium body and crunchy acidity. Flavorful and fresh. From organically grown grapes. Drink now."

"The fabulous 2023 Scalunera Etna Rosato from Torre Mora is a fantastic example of a top rosato from the slopes of what is the world's most active stratovolcano and currently Italy's most exciting wine region. It opens with heady aromas of wild red berry, Mediterranean scrub and dog rose while the tangy, elegant and savory palate features juicy strawberry, crushed raspberry, blood orange and fennel seed before closing on a saline tang. Bright acidity keeps it lifted and energized. Drink through 2026. Abv: 12.5%"
