"2022 was a beautiful vintage, among the most perfect that Marco de Grazia has ever experienced since he arrived on Etna. ÁThis was a perfect year with balanced wines for white, reds and the ros,,, he says. The summer was dry and warm, but the winter rains helped the vines grow without stress. Harvested in September, sourcing grapes from vineyards of different ages situated between 700 and 850 metres above sea level, the 2022 vintage shows inviting aromas of red cherry, pink grapefruit, ginger and oyster shell. The texture is creamy and velvety, with a savoury acidity that creates length and a multi-layered finish † a wine with depth and freshness."

"Pale pink with an orangy twist. Aromas and flavours of rosehip, redcurrant and orange peel have a strong mineral overlay. Saline and savoury on the long vibrating fresh finish. Drinking window: 2024-2026."
