2008 Firriato Etna Rosso ($14.88)
From: Sicily, Italy
Grapes: Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccio.
On the nose: Forest moss, dark red fruit, and stewed plums.
On the palate: Dark red fruit, good mid palate weight, some oregano and other spices including mint and a hint of cinnamon, floral notes. Almost silky and the impression of a sweetness although not from residual sugar. There is a serious luscious factor to this. Long finish.

Comments: This would go great with cheeses, any red meats, or by itself.
I wish I had bought more.
My rating: 8
