Description

Our rosé is made using the same winemaking philosophy and technique as all our other wines: contact with the skins for structure and territorial identity, malolactic fermentation completely finished for density, fluidity and stability. This 'rosé' is not only a refreshing wine for summer, but can also be considered a light red, along the lines of a Jura wine, and can be well paired with a wide variety of dishes. Blend of Malvasia, Moscadella, Inolia and Nerello Mascalese.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 2001
  • Hectares: 24
Our estate was established in 2001, when Etna as a wine region was still undiscovered. Our vineyards are located on the Northern valley of the active volcano Etna, in the oriental part of Sicily. The northern valley is considered today Etna’s top area for single-vineyard (contrada) red wines like the "Côtes-de-Nuits" in Burgundy or Piemonte’s "Barolo" area.

Our farming philosophy is based on our acceptance of the fact that man will never be able to understand nature’s full complexity and interactions. We therefore choose to concentrate on observing and learning the movements of Mother Earth in her various energetic and cosmic passages and prefer to follow her indications as to what to do, instead of deciding and imposing ourselves.
