The Cratere Terre Siciliane IGT of Terrazze Dell’Etna is born from vineyards cultivated on the slopes of Mount Etna, a unique terroir that gives the wine a distinct minerality and complexity. This wine expresses the authenticity of the territory thanks to the native grape varieties used, predominantly Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio, which find in the volcanic soils an ideal environment to mature with balance and depth.
The aging process involves a patient stay in oak barrels, which imparts structure and a pleasant roundness to the palate, enhancing notes of red fruits, delicate spices, and a slight smoky hint typical of Etna grapes. In the glass, it presents a bright color, intense aromas, and vibrant freshness, accompanied by elegant and refined tannins.
Perfect with game dishes, grilled red meats, or typical Sicilian dishes, this Cratere is a sensory experience that tells the strength and magic of the volcano.
