Orestiadi Estates La Gelsomina Etna Rosso DOC 75cl wine

An "extreme" red, a blend of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio, sourced from vineyards that hug the Santa Venera stream at Tenuta La Gelsomina, on the northeast slopes of Mount Etna. The grapes are hand-harvested during the last ten days of September and left to macerate on the skins, promoting the right aromatic balance and complete extraction of tannins. After temperature-controlled fermentation, the wine ages first in stainless steel, then in tonneaux and barriques for 12 and 15 months, completing its final aging in bottle for at least four months.
