Another strange, all-natural Cornelissen wine grown on the volcanic rocks of Mt. Etna.

100% Nerello Mascalese from multiple vintages. No SO2 or anything added to this terracotta aged wine.

Cloudy, light/medium red.

Really odd bright fruit, I liked this less than the Bianco. But I also finished this off the first night while playing Spades, while the Bianco stayed in the fridge until the next. So I can't say I didn't like it. Since I can't recall my thoughts on the wine too specifically, no score. This was an intellectually interesting wine... but I remember thinking I probably wouldn't get it again.
