100% Nerello Mascalese, planted at 550m altitude. A “fuller bodied and rounder style” according to Andrea, given that this lies on the edge of Etna‟s lava. This has a plump and friendly nose, driven by ripe raspberries, wonderfully accessible, with streaks of dark spice. The palate is altogether more serious, thanks to the firm tannins which grip you on the attack. The acidity is especially joyous in this wine, sustaining the sweet red berry flavours through to a long, focused finish. Those tannins call for a couple of years in bottle, but this will be excellent.

Deep ruby-garnet, this offers almost white wine aromatics, complementing attractive primary fruit, summer pudding berries and cherries. Wonderfully fresh and enticing, appetising and upbeat, the palate is light and airy - rather lovely in fact with precision and focus through to a crescendo on the finish – stunning.

Black cherry and fine smokiness on the nose, with quite beautiful violet perfume. With more time in the glass, the aromas become more red-fruited and open - very 2015, very accessible. Finely textured on the fore-palate, with charming soft, silkily giving blackcurrant fruit, offset by a detailed tannic framework. You feel this gives a glimpse of what the grand vin might achieve in the future. A showstopper!
