DESCRIPTION

We are on the northern side of the Etna in Sicily, a particularly gifted region for the production of red wines. Think of Barolo, Bourgogne or Barbaresco in terms of greatness...but with its own identity. The aromas of this wine are fine and vivid thanks to the flavours of violet, bergamot, shrubland, wet stone, and hints of white pepper. On the palate, it is both succulent and patient, with delicate tannins. The finish is strong and tasty. This wine should be paired with arancini, Basque-style chicken and ratatouille.

REGION

Sicily

Italy

Puglia, Italy's third-largest wine-growing region, is renowned for its powerful, sun-drenched red wines, made from indigenous grape varieties such as Primitivo, Negroamaro and Bombino Nero. The dry, sun-drenched terroir of southern Italy produces full-bodied, ripe-fruited wines, perfect for accompanying Mediterranean dishes. Long underestimated, Puglia's red wines are now seducing wine-lovers in search of fine Italian discoveries at affordable prices.

Élégant et minéral

Un Etna Rosso d’une grande finesse, avec des arômes de cerise griotte, d’herbes séchées, de cendre volcanique et d’épices. La bouche est délicate, portée par des tanins soyeux et une superbe tension. Un vin au caractère unique, pur et racé.

Idéal pour célébrer un événement spécial

Le vin déploie des arômes de fruits rouges frais tels que la cerise et la framboise, accompagnés de notes florales de violette et de touches épicées de poivre blanc.

Sicilian Sophistication in a Glass

Bright red fruit, hints of orange peel, crushed rock, and dried rose petals define this expressive Etna Rosso. It's light on its feet but deeply complex, offering great balance and subtle power. A wine of place and precision.

Elegant & Volcanic with Burgundian Flair

The 2017 Etna Rosso from Giovanni Rosso delivers refined red cherry, wild strawberry, and dried herbs, all underpinned by a smoky volcanic minerality. Silky yet structured, with taut acidity and fine-grained tannins, this is a soulful Nerello Mascalese that whispers rather than shouts.

Unexpectedly Elegant

Lovely structure for the price. Red cherry and wild herbs on the nose, with a smoky mineral finish that lingers. Had it with roast duck—absolutely perfect. Great value for money.
