Etna Rosso 2018 SRC
Etna Rosso 2018 is a red wine from Sicily produced using natural methods by the SRC winery. It is made mainly from Nerello Mascalese, the grape that is the absolute protagonist of this area, together with a small part of other native red grapes.
Organic and biodynamic farming principles are followed throughout the production phase: fermentation is spontaneous, using only indigenous yeasts with maceration on the skins for about three weeks. This is followed by 12 months' refinement in cement vats and bottling during the waning moon period, without any addition of sulphites or other chemicals.
SRC's Etna Rosso is a harmonious and elegant wine: in the glass it has a ruby red colour, the nose is very territorial and immediately takes us back to the slopes of Etna through the clear mineral notes that accompany fruity and floral scents. The taste is rich and round, with a long finish and excellent balance.
