-------------------------------------------------
Passopisciaro同Tenuta di Trinoro同一莊主, 但就位於意大利南部的Etna,
作為酒莊旗艦酒, 用上非最主流的提子Petit Verdot,
但每年Franchetti的成績都相當不錯,
呢支被JR團隊評論為Bloody expensive, 鄰近年份於Vivino需過千銀的作品,

"100% Petit Verdot. Impenetrable purple ruby.
Really intense, complex black forest-fruit nose with a hint of vanilla.
Pretty oak and dense, fresh fruit palate. Fantastic tannins that coat the mouth. I
would drink this now! The alcohol you do not notice at all. Impressive balancing act. Bloody expensive! (WS)"
