Etna Rosso "Contrada Moscamento 1911" is a majestic, deep and austere red wine produced from ancient Nerello Mascalese sapling vines grown at over 700 meters above sea level on sandy and volcanic soils, born from an eruption of 1911.
Bright, luminous ruby red. Seductive nose of redcurrants, violet blossoms with pink pepper and forest berries. Delicate, complex palate, almost floating with fine-grained tannins and dancing acidity. Elegant, saline and very long finish. This is a wine of aristocratic grace and finesse that will increase in depth over the coming years.

Tenuta di Fessina
Tenuta di Fessina is a relatively new winery, first established in 2007 by Silvia Maestrelli. Just after 13 years, she is now considered one of the most successful producers of the Etna area and a pioneer in the world of modern Sicilian viticulture. She is, no doubt, the heart and femininity of her wines.
Why are these wines getting so much buzz? Volcanic soils account for only 1 percent of the world’s surface but contribute a much larger percentage of the world’s great vineyards.
Ash-enriched soil is also responsible for smoky, earthy reds born in the shadow of Sicily’s Mount Etna; they have captivated adventurous wine lovers looking to shock their palates with something different.
