Description

Organic still red wine from Sicily, 14% ABV, produced by Frank Cornelissen. Blend: 85% Nerello Mascalese, Alicante Bouschet, Minnella Bianca, Nerello Cappuccio, Uva Francesa, 2024 vintage. A wine born from the philosophy of a producer who believes in respecting nature and the terroir. The winery was founded in 2001, when Etna was still unknown as a wine-growing area. The vineyards are located in the northern valley of the active volcano Etna, in eastern Sicily. Destemming and light crushing, manual punching down, and soft pressing. Fermentation: starting with a "pied-de-cuve" of only indigenous yeasts with the skins for approximately 30 days. Aged in neutral fiberglass tanks.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 2001
  • Hectares: 24
Our estate was established in 2001, when Etna as a wine region was still undiscovered. Our vineyards are located on the Northern valley of the active volcano Etna, in the oriental part of Sicily. The northern valley is considered today Etna’s top area for single-vineyard (contrada) red wines like the "Côtes-de-Nuits" in Burgundy or Piemonte’s "Barolo" area.

Our farming philosophy is based on our acceptance of the fact that man will never be able to understand nature’s full complexity and interactions. We therefore choose to concentrate on observing and learning the movements of Mother Earth in her various energetic and cosmic passages and prefer to follow her indications as to what to do, instead of deciding and imposing ourselves.
