Description

The Etna Rosso Contrada Rampante by Tasca d'Almerita is produced at the Tenuta Tascante, located on the northern slopes of Etna in the municipality of Castiglione di Sicilia. The vineyards are situated at an altitude of 740 meters on ancient volcanic soils, dating back between 15,000 and 4,000 years, with a northeast-southwest exposure. These conditions give the Nerello Mascalese grapes particular vigor and expressive depth.

The vinification takes place in steel with traditional red fermentation at temperatures between 25 and 30 °C for ten days. After malolactic fermentation, the wine ages for twelve months in Slavonian oak barrels, followed by a further eight months of bottle aging, ensuring balance and complexity.

In the glass, it appears with a bright ruby color. The aromatic profile is fine and deep, with light fruity notes followed by earthy undergrowth scents. On the palate, it is rich and savory, with intense and well-integrated tannins, and a final enveloping and warm sensation.

It pairs excellently with game dishes, spicy roasts, or aged sheep cheeses.
