Art. # 5615

The unique Nerello Mascalese variety in one of its most exquisite and attractive forms of about 100 years old vines growing like bushes on the volcanic ash on the slopes of the active volcano Mount Etna. A brilliant, illuminating ruby-garnet colour. Spicy notes of berries, liquorice, flint and traces of thyme on the nose. Captivating copious extract on the palate, with juicy and spicy freshness and fine, tight tannins. Delicate salinity and complex minerality on the finish with interesting potential for further ageing. Only around 4000 bottles were produced.

More about this product

Pietradolce

Pietradolce

Mount Etna is the highest and most active volcano in Europe. The terrain is so unique that the Sicilians have ignored the inevitable risks and planted vineyards and orchards all over the slopes. Thanks to Mount Etna, the soil contains an abundance of minerals, the nights are cool, the days are warm and the wide temperature variations give the wine exceptional richness, aroma and depth. Pietradolce (translated as Sweet Stone) is located in Solicchiata, part of the municipality of Castiglione di Sicilia on the northern slopes of Mount Etna. The vineyards are 11 hectares, divided into three plots, and the altitude is significant, from 650 to 900 meters. The wine cellar itself is young - founded in 2005, as well as its owners - the Michele brothers & amp; Mario Faro. Not surprisingly, Faro's philosophy is absolute respect for the terrain - & quot; our volcano & quot ;, as they call Etna, the local and ancient varieties Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccio, Carricante and traditional cultivation methods. Pietradolce's boutique products (an average of 35,000 bottles per year) are environmentally friendly and authentic. It is the & quot; i vini dell'Etna & quot ;, the purest and most complete expression of this ancient volcano of very old vines, some of which are between 80 and 120 years old.

Sicily

Гърците, финикийците, арабите и италианците са властвали над Сицилия. Въпреки че гърците въведоха своите усъвършенствани лозарски техники, сицилианците произвеждат вино от 4000 г. пр.н.е. Сухият и топъл климат се характеризира с редовно слънчево греене и умерени валежи, подходящи за производството на вино. Сухите условия намаляват вероятността от гниене и мухъл, особено в райони, целунати от крайбрежния бриз. Това прави Сицилия основен кандидат за биологично земеделие. Маслините, цитрусите и зърнените култури изтласкват селскостопанския сектор отвъд виното. В миналото обаче фермерите са избирали по -високи добиви, което превръща Сицилия в център за по-достъпни вина. Региони с наследство като Марсала поставиха сицилианското вино на картата. Винените традиции във всеки от регионите на острова, от Витория до връх Етна, са силни. През 80 -те години възраждането на интереса донесе подобрения в лозарството и винопроизводството. Днес Сицилия се превръща в едни от най -вълнуващите етикети в Италия.
