Fantastisk og topanmeldt vulkansk rødvin fra legendariske Benanti.

Contrada Dafara Galuzzo byder på en sand eksplosion af velsmag. Man fornemmer helt tydeligt det vulkanske ophav med noter af røg og aske i duften, der flot spiller sammen med sorte kirsebær samt tørrede rosenblade. Strukturen er fin som silke med fine tanniner, og en lang og elegant eftersmag.

Contrada Dafara Galuzzo fra Benanti er skabt udelukkende på Siciliens hovedrue, Nerello Mascalese, og er høstet fra parceller på vulkanen Etnas nordlige side i Castiglione di Sicilia. Stokkene vokser i en sandet, vulkansk jordbund, der er utrolig rig på mineraler. Efter høsten afstilkes samtlige druer i kælderen, inden vinen gæres og samt gennemgår maceration i 21 dage i temperaturkontrollerede ståltanke. Lagringen finder herefter sted i store franske egetræsfade, samt en korte periode ligeledes på ståltank, inden vinen flaskes og lagres yderligere 10 måneder inden frigivelse.

James Suckling - 94

A well-made Etna, very fresh and vivid with orange-peel and strawberry character. Medium-bodied, it has fine, vertical tannins and a lightly chewy finish. Nicely structured. Drink now or hold.

Decanter - 94

Coming from 750 metres above sea level on the cool northern slope of Mount Etna, it has a deeper colour than its warmer-climate counterparts. The wine opens with delicate strawberry and floral aromas, evolving into more spicy notes with hints of clove. The strawberries are carried through on the palate and play wonderfully with the more resinous, earthy notes that appear over time. A touch of iron adds intrigue. With three to fours weeks of maceration in stainless steel at a relatively cool temperature of 21°C, followed by one year of ageing in neutral 500-litre oak casks and a return to stainless steel before bottling, this wine retains a minerality and freshness that belies its complexity. With good acidity and slightly chewy tannins, this wine has the structure to age beautifully.

Vinous - 93

A darker and deeper shade of red, the 2022 Etna Rosso Contrada Dafara Galluzzo smolders up with an inviting bouquet of dried roses, ash, red currants and orange zest. This is silky-smooth, elegant and refined, with a soothing wave of ripe red and blue fruits energized by a core of zesty acidity. It leaves a crunchy tart-cranberry concentration to linger, finishing firm as a coating of fine-grained tannins resonates. Patience will be required yet also rewarded—the Dafara Galluzzo has an underlying power and complexity that only time will unfurl.

Wine Spectator - 92

A tightly meshed version, offering a core of chalky tannins enmeshed with chopped cherry and wild strawberry fruit, aromatic lavender, thyme and woodsy spices. This is focused and gives the sense of broad shoulders without being weighty. Tar-tinged finish. Best from 2026 through 2036.
