Produced on the slopes of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe, this wine encapsulates the richness and complexity imparted by its unique terroir.
With a dominance of Nerello Mascalese, a native grape variety of Sicily, "Sul Vulcano" stands out for its elegant character and refined structure. Cultivated at about 700 meters above sea level, the wine boasts remarkable freshness, enhanced by a distinctive minerality that reflects the unique characteristics of the volcanic soil.
Visually, the wine presents an intense ruby red color, with shades that tend towards garnet as the years pass. On the nose, it offers a captivating bouquet with aromas of ripe red fruits, subtle spices, and a slight hint of tobacco and chocolate, enriching the olfactory complexity.
On the palate, "Sul Vulcano" reveals itself as balanced and harmonious, with fine yet well-present tannins. The acidity is lively, a feature that contributes to its great drinkability and freshness. The finish is long and persistent, with an aftertaste that recalls aromatic herbs and volcanic soil.
This wine pairs splendidly with dishes of red meats, game, and aged cheeses. Its versatility also makes it ideal for pairing with more elaborate cuisine, where it can balance rich and complex flavors.
The Etna Rosso "Sul Vulcano" is an eloquent testimony to Donnafugata's ability to produce wines that not only speak of their environment of origin but celebrate it with every sip.
