Etna Rosso 980 Metri

Stef Yim, an Asian-American who, after having refined himself as a sommelier in Los Angeles and aware of wine-making experiences in California and France, becomes an oenologist and founds Sciara Agriculture Company. He finds his credo in the uniqueness of the Etna volcanic soil so much so that he wants to push himself ever closer to the crater. On the north-eastern, north-western and south sides of the mountain Etna, the vineyards, some of which are over a hundred years old, are naturally arranged in bush form. The company also owns the highest red grape vineyard in Europe, located at about 1500 meters.

Because of the similar circumstances of the 3 vineyards - Carrana, Barbarbecchi and Monte Dolce are located along the road ''Quota Mille'' with an approximate altitude of 1000m above sea level, the winemaker decided to combine them together after the 19 months of ''affinemento'' (raising the wine). The Grapes have been harvested from the 3 plots and were spontaneously fermented and matured individually in the various containers for the development of complexity.

Complex nose of plums, wood musk, wild mushrooms and dried fruits together with fennel. The mouthfeel is soft and fresh with core of soft tannins that support the flavors of cherry, rosemary and spearmint in a stony way. An elegant journey of joy from the beginning to the long finish.
