Etna Rosso 2022 Tornatore

Etna Rosso 2022

淡い色調に、北エトナの奥行き。

ネレッロ・マスカレーゼとネレッロ・カップッチョから生まれる、北エトナを体現した赤。緻密な選果と伝統的な縦型プレスによる造りが、この土地らしいエレガンスを引き出しています。淡いルビーレッドにかすかな紫の反射という控えめな色味に、小さな赤い果実やモレロチェリー、ブラックチェリーの香りが清らかに広がります。バランスのとれたタンニンと豊かな旨味、そして長い余韻。ラムチョップのローズマリー焼きとともに。

Tasting note

Its pale ruby red colour has a slight purple reflection, perfectly representing the understated character of Nerello Mascalese. The nose has clear hints of small red fruits, morello cherry and black cherry. On the palate, the wine stands out with its well-balanced tannins, as well as its surprising richness, umami, and length.

Winemaking & technical data

Winemaking
The grapes are hand-picked into small wooden crates, taken straight to the winery and hand-sorted on a conveyor belt. They are destemmed without full crushing and transferred to concrete tanks, where they macerate for about 10–12 days at 22–25°C.
After fermentation, maceration continues for several days; the grapes are then drawn off and pressed in a traditional vertical press.
Aged about 6 months in large barrels and 3 months in bottle.
