Winemaker Notes
"One of the wines he makes every year is Tornatore Etna Rosso, a red wine made from Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio vineyards. These are old vines planted on volcanic soil at an altitude of 650 metres above sea level. They are harvested and selected exclusively by hand when they reach optimum ripeness. Fermentation takes place with maceration in concrete tanks at a controlled temperature of 22-25°C for 10-12 days. The wine is then aged for 6 months in wooden barrels and another 3 months in the bottle before being sold."
"Made from Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio, this is a wine with intense and spicy aromas that goes well with roasts and white meat dishes."
