Description
Still red Etna DOC, 14% ABV, produced by Alta Mora. 100% Nerello Mascalese, 0.75L bottle, 2019 vintage. An Etna Rosso born on the slopes of the volcano, a wine that expresses the strength and elegance of the Sicilian terroir. Since 2013, Alta Mora has brought together the winemaking of five Sicilian districts under a single brand: Pietramarina, Guardiola, Verzella, Feudo di Mezzo, and Solicchiata sull’Etna. All these districts, specifically selected by Alta Mora, share important characteristics: a territory enriched by lava flows and an altitude between 600 and 900 meters, allowing the vines to grow in a unique terroir. Manual harvest in the second ten days of October, maceration at 28 degrees C for 18-21 days. Aged in large 25 hl barrels and tonneaux. A bouquet of red berries, wild rose, wilting violet, and walnut husks unfold, followed by mineral notes of graphite and brushwood. Peppermint and almond complement notes of black pepper, cardamom, dark chocolate, and leather. The palate is smooth, with a great and pleasant sense of freshness supported by a satisfying saline component. Dense and velvety tannins. A well-structured finish.
