The Tenuta Tascante Etna Rosso Contrada Pianodario is a delicate and elegant Sicilian red wine that showcases its high-altitude volcanic terroir with bright acidity and distinctive minerality. The aroma is understated yet perfumed and elegant. It features a delicate mix of dried strawberries, wild raspberry, rose petals, and hints of blue flowers. Distinct volcanic notes of dusty stone, graphite, and flint add a unique mineral dimension.
The wine is delicate yet deep, with a silky texture and flavors of tart red berry and cranberry fruit. Its brisk, zesty acidity is a signature characteristic, which provides focus and energy. It has a firm structure with polished tannins that feel taut and refined.
This is a graceful and pure expression of Nerello Mascalese. It prioritizes finesse and freshness over power, delivering a complex and savory wine that beautifully reflects the unique volcanic soil of its origin.
