The vines are cultivated on the slopes of Etna, at an altitude of almost 800 meters, on black soil, rich in important minerality, where the climate balances dry summers from cold winters, with important temperature ranges between day and night. Climatic conditions that help elevate the sugar content of the grapes, concentrating aromas and sugars that make this wine unique.
Intense, bright ruby red with garnet highlights. Fruit in spirit, spices, mint, notes of moss and humus, leather, tobacco. Full, warm, balanced, tannic, savory notes.
