Origin
Terre Siciliane IGT, Contrada Scimonetta, Etna Nord, Sizilien, Italy

The vines are planted in Contrada Scimonetta near Randazzo at an altitude of 740 metres, facing north. The approximately 2,5-hectare clos, surrounded by stone walls, is characterised by pyroclastic geology. Fermentation begins with a pied-de-cuve made exclusively with indigenous yeasts; the wine remains on the skins for around 60 days. It then matures for 18 months in neutral epoxy-resin tanks and for a further 18 months in bottle. The producer describes the 2022 vintage as round and opulent, with a complex, elegant, deep and structured style. Annual production is around 600 bottles.
