But then the bouquet opens and on the tongue it goes straight through captivating neroli

The elegant sourness lasts with aftertaste of almonds and white peaches

All Mourvèdre brought up in old demi-muids

with notes of apple

morello cherry and raspberry flavors at the core

2022 Girolamo Russo Feudo di Mezzo Etna Rosso, Sicily, Italy Weingut Schäfer-Fröhlich But then the bouquet opensComposed primarily of Nerello Mascalese, with less than 5% Nerello Cappuccio, this wine comes from the Feudo di Mezzo contrada in Castiglione di Sicilia, at 670m (2,200 feet) altitude. The grapes are partially destemmed and undergo a 15 day skin maceration before aging for 18 months in 1,000L barrels, enhancing its depth and structure. The 22 vintage showcases more expressive fruit, smoother tannins, and a slightly fuller texture compared to the 21s.
