This wine has attractive aromas of wild plums, bramble and white flowers. The palate displays red and black cherry notes, coupled with an underlying spice and minerality. The wine is austere and ethereal in its youth, with its high acidity and fine, dusty tannin profile. It is complex and with bottle age will truly express its provenance.
This wine is made from organically grown Nerello Mascalese grapes hand harvested from old bush vines (80– 110 years old) located on the northern slopes of Mt Etna, Sicily. In 2019, the grapes came from the “Don Alfio” vineyard in contrada Filici and from three small vineyards in contrada Montelaguardia (780 – 800 metres above sea level), near the town of Randazzo. Small quantities of Nerello Cappuccio and Alicante (Grenache) are co-planted in these old vineyards, as is the tradition and form part of the field blend. The volcanic soils are dark brown basalt, friable and sandy in Vigna Don Alfio; more stoney in the contrada Montelaguardia.
