It stands out for its elegant \u003cstrong\u003epowder pink colour\u003c\/strong\u003e and an aromatic profile where notes of cherry, strawberry and raspberry blend with subtle hints of white pepper. On the palate, it reveals immediate freshness and a solid savoury structure, supported by the pronounced acidity typical of the grape variety. The balance between these elements gives the sip remarkable \u003cstrong\u003eorganoleptic precision\u003c\/strong\u003e and a persistent finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine originates from the \u003cstrong\u003enorthern slopes of Mount Etna\u003c\/strong\u003e, within the San Lorenzo district. The vineyards, located at seven hundred metres above sea level, grow on \u003cstrong\u003esandy volcanic soil\u003c\/strong\u003e rich in minerals, a fundamental element that imparts the wine with its characteristic savouriness. The vines, some up to eighty years old, are cultivated \u003cstrong\u003eorganically\u003c\/strong\u003e using bush-trained and modified bush-trained to espalier systems. The low yields ensure a raw material of great concentration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction begins with a \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e carried out in the first days of October. In the cellar, \u003cstrong\u003espontaneous fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e takes place at a controlled temperature, activated exclusively by the indigenous yeasts naturally present on the skins. The wine then undergoes six months of ageing in \u003cstrong\u003esteel tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e, a technical choice aimed at enhancing the fruit's vibrancy and preserving the aromatic integrity. This meticulous approach has earned it a score of ninety-four points from James Suckling.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Etna Rosato 2024 by Girolamo Russo is an authentic expression of volcanic terroir, the result of \u003cstrong\u003e80-year-old vines\u003c\/strong\u003e cultivated organically at an altitude of 700 metres.
