"A gorgeous blend of dusty rose, incense, dried strawberries, stone dust and violet candies wafts up as the 2022 Etna Rosso Guardiola slowly awakens in the glass. This is creamy in feel yet lifted and energetic. Masses of ripe red and blue fruits saturate as tactile mineral tones settle in under an air of confectionery spice. Dramatically long and staining, the 2022 tapers off with youthful tension and crunchy tannins while a floral resonance persists. This is a seductive and rich Guardiola that displays fantastic balance."
