He has been working for years\u003cbr\u003ewith great estates in Tuscany, Sicily, and elsewhere, including Girolamo Russo, Alberto Graci, Tabarrini, and Antonella Lombardo. Now Emiliano has chosen to start producing wine under his own name, in two appellations he knows particularly well; the north side of Mount Etna in Sicily, and Bolgheri on the coast of Tuscany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery deep in color, violet-tinged red; aroma and flavor of a mixture of berries\u003cbr\u003e(blackcurrant, blackberry?) with a balancing savory herbal note behind, appetizing and complex. When young, this shows a hint of oak on the palate, but this will integrate as the wine ages. Extremely well made, as one would expect; clean, fresh, direct, expressive, distinctive wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_list\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_authorName\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e92 Points - James Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\nA juicy, textured and pulpy cabernet franc expressing aromas of plums, cassis blossoms and hints of clay. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins. Juicy and fruit-driven on the palate, with a velvety texture and a crunchy finish.
