"Made with fruit from pre-phylloxera vines from one of the highest elevation vineyards in the appellation (at 950 meters above sea level), this is always a study in elegance, and the integrity of the fruit transcends most problematic vintage variations thanks to the hearty resilience of the vines and their extended root systems. This wine shows composure and equilibrium with an incredibly glossy or silky quality of fruit with berry, smoke, tar and campfire ash."
96 points, Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate

ProducerPietradolce

Since its founding in 2005 Pietradolce has come to own one of the largest collections of pre-phylloxera vines on Mt Etna, up to 120 years old. This active volcano commands the winery's devotion and respect, the complex volcanic soils producing truly phenomenal wines with real energy and nuance. Owner Michele Faro and winemaker Giuseppe Parlavecchio focus exclusively on local varieties Nerello Mascalese and Carricante, producing a range of pure, terroir-driven wines roughly structured as Village, Premier Cru, and Grand Cru.
