Tornatore, Etna Rosso DOC, Sicily, Italy, 2022

After being harvested by hand into small crates, the grapes are swiftly transported to the winery, where they are manually sorted on a conveyor belt. They are then destemmed and only partially crushed before being transferred to concrete tanks, where maceration takes place for around 10–12 days at temperatures of 22–25 °C. Following fermentation, the wine remains in contact with the skins for a few additional days before being drawn off. The remaining skins are then pressed using a traditional vertical press.

Ruby red with subtle purple hues, characteristic of the variety’s naturally lighter colour. The nose is bright and expressive, offering clear aromas of red berries, morello cherry and black cherry. On the palate, the wine is defined by finely balanced tannins and an unexpected depth, delivering impressive flavour, richness and a long, satisfying finish.
