Cottanera 2005 EtnaRosso Red (Etna)
Price
$54
Here’s a modern, yet softly delicate wine from Mount Etna (made from Nerello Mascalese with a small percentage of Nerello Cappuccio) that offers tight berry nuances framed by generous tones of almond, cola and licorice. The wine tastes sophisticated and elegant thanks to its polished tannins and lingering mineral flavors.

Cottanera 2006 Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese (Etna)
Online Exclusive
Price
$56
Cottanera was among the first estates to plant international varieties on Mt. Etna. This wine, however, represents a return to the indigenous grapes of the volcano—a trend this family seems to have enthusiastically embraced over the past few years. Aromas here recall wild flowers, forest fruit, spice and lead pencil.

Cottanera 1999 Grammonte Red (Sicilia)
Editors' Choice
Price
$38
It’s all Merlot, and it’s all good. This is a wine that would make our Sexiest Wines of the Year list, if we had one. Lush and medium-full in the mouth, Grammonte has chewy tannins and a palate full of ripe blackberry, toast, chili pepper and a dash of red berry. Good acidity keeps the tannins in line; it finishes very long with more of the same flavors, plus some…

Cottanera 2008 Fatagione Nerello Mascalese (Sicilia)
Online Exclusive
Price
$32
Fatagione delivers great intensity of cola, mint, licorice and rosemary-like aromas. The finish is dusty and dry, high lighted by brimstone and crushed mineral.

Cottanera 1999 Fatagione Nerello Mascalese (Sicilia)
Price
$25
There’s plenty of complexity in the nose, with creamy cassis and cocoa plus a light dusting of oak. The flavors are welcomed with soft tannins and a chalky mouthfeel, altogether a memorable performance from this blend of indigenous Nero Mascalese and Nero d’Avola grapes.

Cottanera 2007 Sole di Sesta Syrah (Sicilia)
Online Exclusive
Cottanera interprets Etna through the lens of international grape varieties like Syrah. Sole di Sesta shows chewy berry and smoked bacon overtones that are characteristic of the grape, with enhanced mineral finesse that is typical of volcanic soil.

Cottanera 2008 Nerello Mascalese (Etna)
Price
$57
Cottanera’s Etna blend (Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio) opens with a brooding dark color and earthy aromas of crushed stone, forest floor and leather. There’s a bright, vinous fruit note of wild berry and red currant as well.

Cottanera 2006 Sole di Sesta Syrah (Sicilia)
Online Exclusive
Aromas span from black fruit, to spice to smoked ham and the wine is soft and velvety on the finish. This thick and luscious Syrah offers a ripe and sunny wine experience that would pair with succulent steak or pork roast.
