“Cultivating a tradition.

After the experience of Profumo di Vulcano, I felt the need to produce a more accessible wine, to share the fruits of my labor with a greater number of people, both connoisseurs and simple wine lovers.

So I bought new vineyards on the northern slope, in the “denominazione di origine” area, in a beautiful district with a winemaking tradition more than two thousand years old.
It is from this sandy, rocky soil that my Etna Rosso was born. It is a wine that speaks the language of its country and embodies its spirit. A pure sip of authenticity.”

Its versatility makes it an excellent companion for a variety of dishes: best drunk chilled with a turbot or grilled tuna. But also delicious to drink more classically with delicate white meats such as roast guinea fowl or veal chops.
