Etna Rosso DOC 2022

Etna Rosso 2022 Cottanera DOC is produced in Castiglione di Sicilia, from 100 % Nerello Mascalese grapes, at an altitude of 670-770 m above sea level, on lava, alluvial and clay soil.

The grapes are harvested by hand, with careful selection of the bunches. After destemming, alcoholic fermentation takes place for 10-12 days, maceration in contact with the skins for about 25 days, and finally ageing first in steel for 10 months and then for 6 months in the bottle.

The end result is a young wine, which can still improve a lot with time, and which receives something extra from the soil, which gives it an impressive minerality and a light but at the same time complex sip. The tannic structure is very broad but the tannins are light and delicate.
