Year: 2020 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Intense ruby red in color, this wine offers on the nose aromas of rose, lavender and small red fruits such as blackberries and currants, together with spicy nuances and vegetable touches. The taste is balanced, mineral and persistent, with fresh red cherry and raspberries on the palate, nourished  by herbal-floral undergrowth." 

About the Producer: 

"The Calabretta wines hail from the DOC of Etna Rosso in northeastern Sicily. The grapes here are primarily the indigenous Nerello Mascalese, with a bit Nerello Cappuccio interplanted. Massimiliano also has a small vineyard of Pinot Noir, a grape that has been planted on Etna since the 1800's. The vineyards are planted between 300 and 900 meters on the slopes of Mount Etna, an active volcano that looms in the distance for much of eastern Sicily. The soils are a combination of black volcanic ash and sand which are fine and almost silty, with lots of lava rocks and good drainage."  

Alcohol: 12%
