Climate
The 2024 Etna climate featured a moderately rainy autumn and winter, a dry spring, and a hot summer with rare but intense rain events.
Harvest
The harvest of Nerello Mascalese, which began on September 23rd thanks to the perfect ripening of the grapes, has given the wine great personality and savoriness. The manual harvest, with a selection of clusters on the vine, has preserved the
integrity of the fruit.
Vinification and Ageing
Upon arrival at the winery, the crates are manually unloaded, and the grape bunches are destemmed. Inside the so press, the must macerates in contact with its skins to extract part of the color, giving the wine a delicate blush pink hue. At the end of fermentation, the wine remains in contact with its own yeasts for at least 4 months before being bottled.
