This single-vineyard site features ancient bush-trained vines, some over 100 years old, planted in sandy, mineral-rich volcanic soils interspersed with pumice stones, which impart distinctive concentration and finesse. Hand-harvested in late September or early October, the grapes undergo full destemming followed by maceration and fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures for approximately 21 days, utilizing indigenous Etna yeasts selected by the winery. The wine then ages for 12 months in French oak tonneaux, followed by additional time in stainless steel and 10 months in bottle, reflecting Benanti's dedication to sustainable viticulture and the revival of Etna's native varieties, resulting in a wine that captures the volcano's unique mineral expression and the 2021 vintage's balance of freshness and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"auto\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThis Etna Rosso presents a bright ruby hue with aromas of red berries, dried lavender, mountain herbs, and volcanic stone, accented by subtle notes of dried flowers and spice.
