Murgo Etna Rosso Doc
This wine expresses the true characteristics of Nerello Mascalese grown on the eastern slope of Etna.
The specific microclimate is affected by the influence of the Ionian Sea, which contributes great finesse and elegant complexity, which can be attributed to the balanced and refined flavors of this variety.
Grilled red and white meats, fresh pasta with meat sauce, grilled “Etna sausage” with “cauliceddi”
