Merchant's description

This is a remarkable wine created from vines that are over 130 years old. It is endlessly complex and perfectly exhibits the unique combination of subtle power yet unerring grace found in Mt Etna wines. The palate is streamlined and focused with subtle nuances of wild berry, spice, ash and rose hip. Decant and serve in large Pinot Noir-style glasses.
