A very pretty, perfumed, young Etna rosso with plenty of fresh flowers, focus and finesse. Medium-bodied, it has fine tannins and a long, bright finish. Best ever? Drink now or hold.

Winemaker Notes

Taste the power and freshness of the legendary Mt. Etna with Tascante Ghiaia Nera. This cuvee of Nerello Mascalese is sourced from three biodiverse terraced vineyards - Piano Dario, Rampante and Sciaranuova - situated on the north side of the mountain. Surrounded by chestnut and downy oak trees, these volcanic sites produce wines of supreme balance, encapsulating the unique character of Etna's DOC wines. Ghiaia Nera is their most authentic expression.

Ghiaia Nera is Tenuta Tascante’s demonstration of the possibilities for Nerello Mascalese from black volcanic soils. The name means “black gravel,” which describes the volcanic soil of the vineyard Subtle aromas of orange peel, cherries, and dried flowers follow through to a medium body, fine tannins and a refined, subtle finish. Aged in 25hl oak cask for 12 months.
