Tasting Notes

At the highest confines of the Etna DOC, these un-grafted, old vineyards typically take the longest to fully ripen, and the wines are projected for the long haul. A touch more austere, but quintessentially Nerello Mascalese with their darker tones and grainy mouthfeel. The 2021 is​ a​ “lively and spry Rampante that is a bit unruly yet enjoyable all the same” (Eric Guido, Vinous).

ProducerPietradolce

Since its founding in 2005, Pietradolce has come to own one of the largest collections of pre-phylloxera vines on Mount Etna, some up to 120 years old. This active volcano commands the winery’s devotion and respect, with its complex volcanic soils producing wines of remarkable energy and nuance. Owner Michele Faro and winemaker Giuseppe Parlavecchio focus exclusively on local varieties, Nerello Mascalese and Carricante, crafting a range of pure, terroir-driven wines roughly structured as Village, Premier Cru, and Grand Cru.
