What to say

  • A wine of bright ruby red colour, this wine is characterised by an elegant bouquet with notes of red berries, flint and pleasant spices.
  • Palmento Costanzo sits in Contrada Santo Spirito on the northern slope of Etna, around a conservatively restored 19th-century palmento (traditional lava-stone wine press) with a new bio-architectural cellar built beside it.
  • On the palate it is marked by a refreshing minerality and soft tannins.

The producer

Palmento Costanzo

Palmento Costanzo sits in Contrada Santo Spirito on the northern slope of Etna, around a conservatively restored 19th-century palmento (traditional lava-stone wine press) with a new bio-architectural cellar built beside it. Its eighteen hectares are terraced across several contrade, each on a different lava flow, and every parcel is vinified separately in steel, tonneaux or large casks so each soil speaks with its own voice.
