The good folks at @itwineclub have once again dropped an insane deal, and I had to (with Brandon’s encouragement) grab the lot. 100% Etna Rossos.

My first true love in wine was not a Bordeaux or anything. It was Etna Rossos. It was the first wine that jolted my eyes open, and was the first wine where I had recognized its terroir blind from a couple of sips. I still remember that day – it was a large group dinner, in a restaurant with half indoors and half outdoors seating. I texted Brandon excitedly because he had introduced me to an other Etna Rosso perhaps a few weeks prior, and I recognized it immediately. I still drink this here and there, but candidly aside from Brandon and James, no one else around me even enjoy it, which is such a shame given how delicious they are.
