Description

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.

Perfume

Perfume

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.

Color

Color

Bright, clear ruby red.

Taste

From this winery
Federico Graziani vineyards are located at the foot of Mount Etna, between 600 and 1,200 metres above sea level, on the northern and north-western slopes. This is a mysterious and special place with a unique ecosystem with remarkable climatic variability and a variegated landscape teeming with life.

For the past 2000 years, people here have been growing vineyards in small plots of land reclaimed from the mountain, living in symbiosis with the volcano and adapting to the power and unpredictability of its elements. This is slow and ancient work, carried out by hand with toil, passion, and respect.
