More questions
Erse di Tenuta di Fessina is a rosé with evocative territoriality, produced in the Etna area, a zone famous for its viticulture with a strong volcanic character. The choice of the Nerello Mascalese grape variety, typical of this territory, gives the wine a marked elegance and vibrant freshness, accompanied by hints of red fruits and delicate mineral notes that recall the richness of the volcanic soil.
The winemaking process involves a short maceration in contact with the skins to enhance color and structure, followed by aging in steel tanks that preserve its freshness and aromatic intensity. On the nose, aromas of strawberry, cherry, and a floral undertone emerge, while on the palate there is a refined balance between acidity and softness, with a clean and persistent finish.
Perfect as a companion to appetizers based on cured meats, summer fish dishes, or rich salads, Erse invites you to celebrate the complexity of the Etnean terroir with every sip. A rosé with a vibrant character, which gracefully tells the strength and delicacy of one of the most fascinating zones in the Sicilian wine landscape.

The story
The project began with the arrival of Silvia Maestrelli and her husband Roberto Silva and the subsequent acquisition of small plots in the Rovittello area. Operations were formally established in 2007, with the involvement of specialist consultants and collaborators who helped shape the estate’s style.
Production philosophy
The winery presents itself as "a place of beauty between land and spirit": its approach emphasizes the expression of Etna's volcanic terroir, respect for historic vineyards, and an artisanal interpretation of viticultural and cellar practices.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards are located on the slopes of Mount Etna, characterized by volcanic soils, terraces and historic alberello-trained vines. For the CRU "Il Musmeci" the technical sheet indicates a north-east exposure, an altitude of around 700 m, deep soils and a composition of Nerello Mascalese with the presence of Nerello Cappuccio, Carricante and Minnella in the mixed parcels.
