"The fabulous 2023 Scalunera Etna Rosato from Torre Mora is a fantastic example of a top rosato from the slopes of what is the world™s most active stratovolcano and currently Italy™s most exciting wine region. It opens with heady aromas of wild red berry, Mediterranean scrub and dog rose while the tangy, elegant and savory palate features juicy strawberry, crushed raspberry, blood orange and fennel seed before closing on a saline tang. Bright acidity keeps it lifted and energized. Drink through 2026. Abv: 12.5%"

"The conversation about rosé being a year-round wine is finally on and Torre Mora™s rosato of Nerello Mascalese is compelling proof of why pink wines deliver a œbest of all worlds” experience. Fresh, saline, herbaceous, with a pop of citric acid and warm red berries, it™s just as good fireside as poolside. Skurnik Wines, Inc. "D.C."

"This pale pink wine has fragrant notes of watermelon and fresh flowers. It,s fresh, primary and fruity, with a light to medium body, but it,s persistent and flavorful. From organically grown grapes. Drink now."

"The 2024 Scalunera Rosato is a lovely, savory rosato that doles out aromas and flavors of succulent raspberry, red cherry, peach pit and nectarine infused by a mineral vein of saline. A pure Nerello Mascalese made with organically farmed grapes, it has tangy acidity that keeps it bright. Drink through 2027. Abv: 12.5% Kerin O™Keefe"

"The fun, textured nose of pencil eraser, wild strawberry and blood orange leads into a palate that™s tangy, sunny, bright and lively, while a saline undercurrent provides a welcome, bracing element. Torre Mora. "D.C."
