Description

Still rosé from Etna DOC, 13.5% ABV, produced by Maugeri. 100% Nerello Mascalese, a grape variety that best expresses the volcanic character of the territory. 0.75 L bottle, 2024 vintage. A rosé born from the passion of an Etna family returning to make wine in their native land. The grapes are harvested by hand in the first ten days of October. The cold-clarified must is fermented 50% in stainless steel and 50% in 500-liter French oak tonneaux, followed by aging on the fine lees for 4 months. A wine that tells the story of a unique terroir, with a color that anticipates its freshness and minerality.

Maugeri is the wine-growing project of an Etnean family, who have returned to their home district to make wine once more. The unbroken line of more than 2.8 km of lava dry-stone walling borders the 7 hectares of the property, an amphitheatre of fertile volcanic soil, in a close embrace with the Mediterranean landscape.

Renato remains a child of the 1960s, knowing every corner of the estate, with his children Carla, Michela and Paola accompanying him in every decision. Three professional women, who through the wine give expression to the intimate relationship between the calling of the land and their family values linked to environmental and social sustainability.
