Palmento Costanzo Etna Rosso Contrada Santo Spirito 2017

Palmento Costanzo is a notable winery on the northern slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily, recognized for its unique volcanic terroir. Established by Mimmo Costanzo and Valeria Agosta, the winery focuses on restoring ancient winemaking traditions. The estate benefits from rich volcanic soil, ancient terracing, and varying vineyard elevations, contributing to the complexity of the wines. The winery cultivates indigenous grape varieties like Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio for reds, and Carricante and Catarratto for whites. They produce Etna Rosso, Etna Bianco, and Rosato, known for their elegance and expression of the terroir.

A wine of strong ruby colour and a rich and elegant bouquet of red berries, sour cherry and flinty notes, this wine is strong and pronounced on the palate, and a long and persistent mineral finish.
