Description

A still red wine from Sicily, 13.5% ABV, produced by Cottanera. 2019 vintage. A wine born on the slopes of Etna, a unique terroir where winemaking tradition blends with innovation. 100% Mondeuse. An elegant trail of oriental spices and fine toasting opens to reveal fruity notes of blackcurrant and floral notes of primrose, while aromatic herbs are enriched with berries and intense mineral notes. On the palate, it is fresh and rich with well-managed tannins that are softened by crispy roundness and propelled by energetic savory flavors toward a long finish rich in fruity and spicy overtones.

Culturing vines in the black lands of Etna is a tradition, an ancient heritage which Guglielmo and Enzo Cambria have developed with Cottanera, an enterprise dedicated to excellence. Volcanic lava has given life to a particular soil as extraordinary as the Cambria’s passion for quality wines. This passion has been transmitted to Guglielmo’s heirs: Mariangela, Francesco and Emanuele, who revitalised this wine-growing area. Sicilia Felix is a unique land where the creative energy of the Cambria family has laid the foundations for Cottanera, a company uniting tradition with innovation. Read more
