Planted with old-vine Nerello Mascalese dating back to 1946, at elevations between 750 and 780 meters, this vineyard benefits from abundant sunlight and constant airflow. The sandy clay soils and extreme conditions give rise to a wine of depth and power, often considered Cornelissen’s “Hermitage” of Etna for its richness and structure.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the glass, it shows a luminous ruby red with garnet reflections, combining intensity with transparency.
