Discover the grape variety: Nerello mascalese

Elegant, taut reds with a pale ruby colour (often compared to Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo), fine tannins and high acidity, on aromas of red cherry, raspberry, Mediterranean herbs, dried flowers, spices, graphite and volcanic mineral notes. Fine ageing potential. The absolute star of Etna Rosso DOC, thriving on the black lava flows of the north and east contrade. Also in Faro DOC. Native Sicilian high-altitude grape.
