The grapes come from several vineyard sites in the northern Etna Valley, including Picciolo, Calderara, Crasà, Muganazze, Feudo di Mezzo and Puntalazzo, on volcanic soils. After destemming and gentle crushing, they ferment with vineyard-native yeasts and around ten days of skin contact. The wine is matured in neutral epoxy tanks holding 2.500 to 8.000 litres. It is dry, medium-bodied and generous, with raspberry, pomegranate, violet flowers, mineral and slightly peppery notes. The acidity is fresh, while the tannins remain restrained. It is described as a rosato with the character of a light red wine.
