Tasting Notes

A fine example of Sicily winemaking, this Etna DOC reflects generations of local expertise. Its 14.5% alcohol content underpins a rich, muscular structure. Crafted from Nerello Mascalese 100% , this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards 20-year-old vines on south-facing volcanic sand soils at an altitude of 750 metres above sea level. Vinification: spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in steel with indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged 12 months in second-passage oak barrels. A wine capturing Sicily's sun-soaked character and ancient viticultural roots.
