title: Murgo 2005 Metodo Classico Brut  (Etna)
description: Burnt matchstick and cardboard comes across at first but gives way to attractive aromas of peach and citrus. The wine is lean and tonic on the palate but that disturbing matchstick note appears once again on the finish. That said: it's not everyday that you taste a sparkling wine made from Nerello Mascalese on Sicily's Mount Etna—so hat's off to Murgo.
variety: Nerello Mascalese
designation: Metodo Classico Brut
