  • Bottles produced: 120.000
  • Hectares: 36
The amphitheatre of terraces gathers, as if in an embrace, Etna's indigenous grape varieties: Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccio and Carricante, while also encircling other international varieties such as Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Petit Verdot. Nerello Mascalese is the company's main grape variety, a red thread that binds the entire production.

Ancient head-trained vines over 60 years old give life to Cirneco: Etna Rosso, whose name is a tribute to the volcano's native hunting dog, which possesses the wine's equal characteristics in terms of elegance and strength.

The younger vines give birth to Carusu, a young Etna Doc that retraces the history of Etna reds in a modern key, Rosato Etna Doc with its pinky hues, and Ciuri, an elegant and unique wine, originated from the white vinification of Nerello Mascalese.

From the Carricante vineyards comes Cinniri, a Bianco Etna DOC that, as the name indicates, brings the typical flavours of the volcano back into the glass.

The international grape varieties give rise to four Metodo Classico sparkling wines (two that remain 36 months on the lees and two that remain 50 months) and two IGT Sicilia red wines.
