A fascinating wine showing flower stems, orange peel and bark with some dried mushrooms. The structure and length are exceptional with a medium to full body and tight, focused tannins. Ends with a persistent, polished and refined finish. Caresses in every sense. Better in five years but if you get the chance to drink now, go for it!
Winemaker Notes
On the northern slopes of Mount Etna, Sicily, there is a small vineyard that dates back to 1880, named “La Vigna di Don Peppino” It's a parcel, or lieu dit so to speak, located amidst Calderara Sottana. The vineyard is sandy soils enriched by volcanic ash/stone and the vines are 100+ years old. Nerello Mascalese is the flavor of the day.
