Tasting Notes

Aroma

The nose shows very ripe red and black forest fruits and florals, with feint hints of spice and oak.

Appearance

Pale ruby with garnet hues.

Palate

The palate reflects the generous and ripe fruit with a delineated minerally note and beautifully balanced acidity giving freshness and vibrancy. Great depth, length and finesse.

Vinification

The wine is fermented and in large open top wooden fermenters (tini) with indigenous yeasts and no temperature control. The maceration on skins averages 25 days. The wine is matured for 24 months in large oak botti, during which time the malo-lactic fermentation occurs spontaneously, and a further 12 months in the bottle.

Winemakers Comments

‘Etna is a special place,’ says Graci, who today runs the estate with his sister Elena. ‘We only cultivate traditional varieties indigenous to Mount Etna and aim to respect local traditions as well as the distinct characters of each vintage. The land decides, not us. We believe that only by listening carefully and responding to the expressions of Nature in our territory can great wines be born. Great because they are true.’
