Barone di Villagrande Etna Rosso DOC 2022

Floral scents of violets and fresh fruit from the woods with a hint of herbaceousness. Medium-bodied with present tannins, marked acidity & fresh red fruits, such as cherry, plum & red currant. Elegant, classic and elevated.

A blend of the Nerello family of grapes (80% Nerello Mascalese, 20% Nerello Cappuccio and Nerello Mantellato), this is a prime example of why Etna wines are more popular than ever. Combining some of the elegant structure of a Pinot Noir with the aromatic complexity of a Nebbiolo, they're a lot of fun. Great fruit, good complexity, delicious red wine. Practicing organic. Aged in local chestnut.

With a history that dates back to 1727, Barone di Villagrande is Siciliy's oldest winery. Their vineyards are on the lower slopes of Mount Etna at 700 meters above sea level, and their Etna Rosso is one of the best values of its type in the marketplace.
