Etna Rosso "Rosso di Mezzo" D.O.C.

Ongoing work.

Rosso di Mezzo is a work in progress and reflects both the present and the future of the winery.

This wine is made from the best grapes coming from the century-old vineyards in Passopisciaro, from the four plots belonging to the estate in Contrada Feudo di Mezzo. The project also looks ahead, as it will soon include the production of the young alberello vineyard from ungrafted vines in the same famous Contrada.

It is a wine where old pre-phylloxera vines come together with young plants obtained through a massive selection of the oldest vineyards, bringing to life a more authentic fruit and a 100% European vine, without any damage caused by root transplantation.

The grapes are harvested by hand and then undergo spontaneous fermentation in open oak barrels (without temperature control) with native yeast. The wine is then refined in steel for 24 months, followed by another 6 months of aging in bottle.

The wine has a deep, transparent ruby color.

The bouquet is fragrant, with the intensity of currant and wild blueberry, followed by a hint of caper leaf and fresh aromatic herbs.

On the palate, the wine is lively, elegant and silky. It begins with notes of aromatic spices and a hint of red-orange, followed by a mineral nuance of flint.

Serving temperature: 18-20° C
