Etna Rosso Riserva DOC - Davide Fregonese

This Etna Rosso Riserva DOC from Davide Fregonese shows an elegant, vertical character typical of wines from the slopes of Etna. On the nose it opens with notes of ripe red fruit, floral hints and a slight balsamic element that integrates with a pleasant mineral nuance; on the palate it is sapid, with fine tannins, lively acidity and a balanced structure that gives persistence without being overpowering. The progression is measured and invites slow tasting and reflection.

It pairs well with roasted or braised meats, game birds, hearty ragù pasta and aged cheeses that are not overly sharp. It is also enjoyable with dishes featuring mushrooms and grilled vegetables. It is advisable to let the wine breathe for a few minutes in a decanter or in the glass to appreciate its aromatic evolution; serve around 16–18 °C. This bottle can accompany formal dinners as well as informal moments, enhancing home-style cooking and dishes with characterful ingredients. Store in a cool, stable cellar temperature to preserve its qualities.
