The Etna area is an exceptional place and is distinguished by some unique characteristics. Starting with its unique microclimate, influenced by the volcanic soil and the high temperature range between night and day. The Scalunera line, a Sicilian word meaning 'stairway', takes its name from the lava stone walls that decorate the slopes of the volcano, recalling with their shapes the steps of an ancient amphitheatre. Scalunera Etna DOC Rosato is made from pure Nerello Mascalese grapes, an indigenous variety that over the centuries has adapted to the high altitude and peculiar composition of Etna's soils. The grapes are harvested by hand, around mid-September. In the cellar, vinification is super careful, respecting the raw material. The wine is left to mature on the lees for about 3 months before bottling. Delicately pink, it surprises on the nose with notes reminiscent of red fruits, passion fruit, and sweet spices. In the mouth, however, it presents a good balance between freshness and savouriness, with a lingering finish. A structured rosé but, at the same time, very drinkable. Perfect as an aperitif, it accompanies seafood, grilled fish or first courses with fish sauces.
