Federico Graziani Etna Profumo di Vulcano 2019
Profumo di Vulcano comes from a small vineyard dating back to the late 19th century, about half a hectare of land on the northern slopes of Mount Etna at 600 m. a.s.l., in Contrada Feudo di Mezzo, village of Passopisciaro, in the town of Castiglione di Sicilia. The altitude and north-facing position offer shelter from the strong Sirocco winds, resulting in a daily summer temperature range of around 28°C. These special conditions guarantee the grapes a longer ripening period, which enriches their flavour and complexity.

Colour

Bright, clear ruby red.

Bouquet

Ample, with currants, myrtle and raspberries, followed by citrus flavours and sweet spices of sandalwood and tobacco. Sensations of aromatic herbs, marjoram, caper and thyme persist.

Flavour

The palate is rich but not round, with a deliberately lively tannic nuance. The finish in the mouth is complex and persistence, with a great personality.

Pairing

Excellent with baked black suckling pig, game, roast and aged cheeses.
