From high-altitude vineyards in the village of Biancaville on the slope of Etna, the Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappucio grapes thrive in this mountainous climate, on sandy volcanic soils. With the utmost care they hand harvest the grapes and transport them to the cellar, and the work in the winery is done with great care to preserve the beautiful aromatics of the grapes. The fermentation process occurs in stainless steel tanks using carefully selected yeasts, under strictly controlled temperatures. The wine then undergoes an aging period of 12 months in oak barrels, followed by another 12 months in oak casks, and is further refined in the bottle for 15 months before release.
