Nerello Mascalese
The Nerello Mascalese grape variety is the absolute protagonist of the Etnean territory as it represents the power, elegance and majesty of the great Sicilian volcano. It comes from centuries-old ungrafted vines planted with the traditional alberello system at altitudes of up to 1000 metres on extraordinary black lava stone terraces. From this warm and immortal land of fire comes a deep red wine, with great minerality and finesse. Defined by many critics as the Mediterranean cousin of Pinot Noir, in recent decades it has conquered the market with modern expressions of character, capable of conveying the vital energy of Europe's largest active volcano.
An energetic and invigorating Pantelleria rosé handcrafted, made the old-fashioned way based on Nerello Mascalese, it matures for 6 months between steel and chestnut wood, expressing a refreshing personality with markedly brackish traits, framed by notes of small fruits, capers and pomegranate
