Produced exclusively from 80-100 year old pre-phyloxxera Nerello Mascalese vines, grown in the area traditionally called "Barbagalli", at an altitude of 900 meters on the northern slope of Etna.

This version of Etna Rosso Barbagalli is an extraordinarily elegant red wine, one of the best expressions of Nerello Mascalese.
It is left to mature for 20 months in oak barrels, and enjoys very balanced tones, between red fruit and sweet spices. On the palate it is very velvety, supported by fine tannins and an energetic freshness.
Furthermore, it is perfect to combine with strong flavors such as red meat, or a classic pasta with meat sauce.

"Core is the name of the cru from which the grapes come. The name originates from a vineyard that has always been called Core by the local farmers. In Sicilian, "core" means heart. In fact, the vineyard seen from above has the shape of a big heart."
This red wine is a Certified Organic wine with a very territorial character, which gives off notes of plum, spices and red fruits with hints of cocoa and licorice.
The color is ruby red with light purplish reflections and the taste is very fresh, soft and round, with typical tannins.

Produced in the province of Catania from Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio grapes, from both young and old vineyards, Etna Rosso is a wine of the highest quality level. Fresh, fragrant, elegantly lean and rightly tannic, it has its own natural elegance.
From grapes of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio, Santo Spirito is a sensual and succulent wine, always seductive, with an almost fleshy bouquet and a rich and enveloping palate, but always pure and balanced.
Very refined but also tender. At the same time generous and vulnerable.
It goes very well with game dishes, soups, noble poultry and pork.
Produced from ancient Prefillosseric vineyards, about 130 years old, this wine represents the pride of the Terre Nere estate. The Nerello Mascalese grapes give Prephylloxera a supernatural finesse also thanks to the presence of volcanic soils with a high percentage of pumice stone mixed with basalt.
Pietradolce's Etna Rosso is an elegant expression of Nerello Mascalese, which is born on the slopes of Etna, precisely in Castiglione di Sicilia.
This wine, with a pale ruby red colour, has a fresh, elegant and delicate flavor but is characterized by a rich sapidity. On the other hand, the scent is delicate and spicy, with nuances of wild berries combined with woody hints of herbs and roots.
"Vrucara is the name of the cru from which the grapes come. The name originates from a vineyard whose land has always been called "Vrucara". It takes this name because the vruca is widely present, in Sicilian it is the name of a bush that spontaneously grows around the vineyard. This herb with a mentholated scent mixed with incense oil. "Transferred" into the ancient vine plants, unique, characteristics that we find later in the wine."
The Vrucara is the label that is a bit the symbol of this winery, which comes from old prephyloxxera vines.
