The Rosato from the Alta Mora range is made from old Nerello Mascalese vines growing on slopes between 600 and 800 metres above sea level on the northern flanks of Mount Etna. The sparse, volcanic soils, characterised by lava rock and mineral ash, lend the wine a tension typical of its terroir and a delicate, salty depth. The grapes are harvested early and pressed immediately to preserve their freshness and finesse. The wine is aged exclusively in stainless steel.

A delicate salmon pink in the glass, with a slight coppery sheen. On the nose, redcurrants, white cherry, blood orange and a hint of Mediterranean herbs – delicately interwoven, fresh and crisp. Lively and precise on the palate: invigorating acidity, salty minerality and a dry, silky-textured final with subtle fruit and a hint of spice. The high altitude and the microclimate typical of Mount Etna, with cool nights and a slow ripening period, ensure exceptional balance and freshness. An elegant wine true to its terroir – perfect with grilled fish, shellfish or a Sicilian caponata. SUPERIORE.DE

"Lightly savory, with dried orange and stone fruit on the nose. Medium-bodied, with vivid acidity and a fresh, precise finish." James Suckling
