A bright ruby red colour, characteristic of the Nerello Mascalese grape grown on the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna. The nose is fresh and expressive, offering aromas of wild raspberries, red cherries, and a distinct smoky minerality. Subtle floral notes, like violets, and a hint of spice add complexity.
This Etna Rosso is dry, elegant, and medium-bodied on the palate, with fine tannins and vibrant acidity. The flavours echo the aromas, showcasing the juicy red fruit alongside the characteristic minerality and a savoury, earthy undertone. The finish is clean and refreshing. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with a range of dishes, including roasted meats (such as lamb or pork), game birds, and mushroom-based dishes. It also complements aged cheeses, hearty pasta, and even grilled fish. Its refreshing acidity and moderate tannins make it a food-friendly choice.
