Why I suggest Contrada Santo Spirito PT 466 Rosso Etna DOC

Contrada Santo Spirito Etna Doc wine, the prestigious Sicilian winemaking reality, supported by Valeria Agosta, owner of the winery. Production that expresses the deep soul of the Sicilian territory, in close connection with Etna. The vineyards are in the village of Passopisciaro, on the north side of Etna at 700-800 meters above sea level, on soils of black volcanic sands and effusive rocks.

The Sommelier: Nerello Mascalese and Cappuccio grapes are characterized by purity and harmony, delicate spiciness, flint and a complex bouquet.
The mouth is silky smooth with a medium weight but a flavor full of power intensity with a high acidity and tannins but with a great elegance and power with a great persistence in the output and a super strong and long aftertaste. Wine with great aging potential.
