Prephylloxera - La Vigna di Don Peppino Etna Rosso•2023

Tenuta delle Terre Nere’s 2023 Prephylloxera La Vigna di Don Peppino Etna Rosso is strikingly aromatic, layering dark and red cherries with wild strawberries, sweet spice and a deep, stony earthiness lifted by subtle smoke. On the palate it is taut yet refined, with vivid, tangy berry fruit, a twist of citrus, firm youthful tannins and a long, savory finish streaked with licorice and volcanic minerality. This vintage feels particularly energetic and structured, promising terrific complexity with time in bottle.
