Cantina Maugeri Etna Rosato "CONTRADA VOLPARE"
Vintage: | 2022 |
---|---|
Description: | Practicing Organic Farming. 100% Nerello Mascalese. This rosé carries the intensity and elegance for which Etna is famous. Invigorating, mouthwateringly delicious, with subtle Nerello notes that are earthy, fruity, floral and herbal, not unlike those found in Nebbiolo; finessed aromas include wild strawberry, orange citrus, rose and Mediterranean herbs like thyme. A class-act wine that will impress, especially enjoyed outdoors with roasted chicken, salmon or a host of light - but flavorful - dishes from around the Mediterranean rim! We recommend serving at 55-58f. "The grapes are harvested by hands and undergo a process of cryomaceration for a few hours and then direct pressing. The cold clarified must fermented, then matured for 4 months on the lees, and half in large french oak barrels [tonneaux] and an half in steel tank. Maugeri is the wine-growing project of an Etnean family, who have returned to their home district to make wine once more. The unbroken line of more than 2.8 km of lava dry-stone walling borders the 7 hectares of the property, an amphitheatre of fertile volcanic soil, in a close embrace with the Mediterranean landscape. Renato remains a child of the 1960s, knowing every corner of the estate, with his children Carla, Michela and Paola accompanying him in every decision." - Winery Notes |
