Etna Rosso DOC Contrada Carranco is born on the slopes of the highest active volcano in Europe, in Sicily, a land that gives this wine uniqueness and character. Produced by the Carranco winery, this red is mainly made from Nerello Mascalese, an indigenous grape variety that perfectly reflects the volcanic terroir. The aging takes place in wooden barrels that enrich the wine with elegance without overpowering its freshness and the typical minerality of the lava soils. In the glass, it appears with a bright ruby red color and a vibrant bouquet, characterized by notes of small red fruits, delicate spices, and a subtle hint of Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, it reveals a balanced structure, pleasantly lively tannins, and a long persistence that brings out the sapidity attributable to the soil of origin. Perfect paired with roasted meat dishes or aged cheeses, this Etna Rosso tells the strength and elegance of a unique territory.
