A single-vineyard Etna Rosso from the Guardiola contrada, sourced from 150-year-old pre-phylloxera vines at 800 to 1,000 metres above sea level. It is made with 18 to 21 days of maceration, malolactic fermentation in wood and extended ageing in large 25 to 50 hectolitre oak barrels and tonneaux. The wine shows red currants, blackberries and wild rose, with forest floor, leather, walnut husk, graphite and ash. The palate is fresh and saline, with small red fruits, peppermint and black pepper in velvety tannins, and a long, savoury finish.
