Product Notes

Pietro Caciorgna Etna Rosso Guardoilvento is an exquisite Sicilian wine produced from the unique Nerello Mascalese grape. It emanates vibrant red berry fragrances, with delightful undertones of thyme and rosemary, reaffirming its Mediterranean origins. Upon tasting, it releases a bold, fruity profile marked by cherries and red plums, balanced by a striking minerality and refined tannins. Hints of spice and a prolonged finish further enhance its complexity. This wine is both elegant and powerful, encapsulating the volcanic terroir of Mount Etna in each sip. Perfectly suited for those seeking a unique and discerning wine experience.

Tasting Notes

Guardoilvento expresses the character of the altitude and of the black and stony earth where it was born. Perfumed with intense and delicate aromas, with notes of fresh fruit and spices, with a strong body but with gentle, soft and delicate tannins. Easy to drink at the moment, but even more generous if you know how to wait
