Etna Rosso
This Etna Rosso is made from 100% Nerello Mascalese and is produced in the Feudo di Mezzo winery, lying in the center of Etna’s wine growing area. Nerello Mascalese is a very elegant grape. On the nose is vanilla, sour cherry, wild strawberry, and very clean floral aromas. In the mouth it is substantial but smooth. Very expressive fruit with more complex aromatic elements of undergrowth, myrtle and oriental spices... all of which combine to create a delicious red wine with marked savoury flavour and a tasting profile produced by a ferrous touch, rhubarb and very evident black pepper. A wine for everyday drinking. Its adaptability allows it to accompany a simple pasta with tomato dish as well as more complex dishes of meat and fish.
