La Gelsomina goes up to the volcanic slopes to propose creating this Etna Rosso DOC , Sicilian wine in every fiber of its being, born from 50% Nerello Mascalese and 50% Nerello Cappuccio grapes.
It takes time to draw from Etna Rosso DOC everything it has to offer, and to allow it to tell a story of territory and passion . In the glass it releases hints of red fruit and vanilla , placidly arranged in complex odorous clouds. In the mouth it is true magic , full and harmonious, respectful of the typical nature of the vines that determine its soul.
Gelsomina knows Sicily well and this Etna Rosso attests to this clearly , without leaving room for replies, a red that draws full character from the territory from which it comes, just like the many myths that find their roots in Sicily.
Not a red to be underestimated, certainly a wine over which you risk losing your head easily .
A wine to uncork when you are looking for something out of the ordinary , in short, uncork it if you want to try an almost unknown specialty.
Excellent wine with red meats , game , tasty cheeses and dishes with intense and territorial flavours.
Uncork the bottle and let the wine breathe for just a few minutes , serve it at a temperature of 18° .
A wine that follows a complex winemaking process , with steel for 2 months, tonneaux and barrique for more than a year and 4 months of rest in the bottle.
We are in Sicily , an island that has always been suited to viticulture, more precisely on the slopes of Etna where the vineyards used to create this red are located, a unique area in which the exposure creates favorable conditions for the cultivation of the vine and the obtaining of high level products.
The soil is of volcanic origin , with specific characteristics like an impressionist's canvas, in fact each lava flow that followed over time has left different characteristics to the various pieces of land.
