About this product

This wine is obtained from the best batches of Nerello Mascalese that have been selected for perfect polyphenolic maturation. The long maceration at low temperature allows a complete extraction of the components creating a wine in which the true potential of these particular grapes and the Etna terroir are enhanced. The particular elegance of the tannins combined with a remarkable concentration determines a great sensory complexity in which the mineral taste of the black sands of the volcano is highlighted in a very fine way. Next to these characteristics you can perceive spicy notes that combine in a very pleasant way with the fruity of the grapes and you can feel in the aftertaste traces of vanilla and toasted hazelnuts.
