Etna Rosso Prephylloxera Terre Nere 2023 is a red wine from the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily, crafted from ungrafted vines that predate the Phylloxera epidemic. This vintage showcases the unique character of its native vines, composed of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio. The wine is sourced from meticulously tended small parcels, which contribute to its depth and complexity. Flavours of cherry, earth and mineral notes interlace, underscored by a characteristic freshness.
