Tasting Notes
Etna Rosso DOC Monte Arso 2023. Made primarily from Nerello Mascalese with a blend of Nerello Cappuccio and Mantellato, shows a bright, fluid ruby-red color. The nose is elegant and expressive, offering floral notes of violet and fresh woodland fruit, followed by subtle herbaceous hints.

Aged for 12 months in 500-liter chestnut barrels, this wine reflects the harmony between structure and finesse that defines the Etna terroir.
