Sicilian Wine Giodo L'Etna Alberelli di Giodo 2017

Etna Alberelli di Giodo The irresistible charm of Etna and its main grape, 100% Nerello Mascalese, made Carlo Ferrini fall in love with him, who has been attending Sicily as an oenologist for over 15 years. Thus began the story of Alberelli di Giodo, the first vintage was 2016. Just over one hectare at about 950 meters above sea level where there are precious pre-phylloxera plants between 80 and 100 years of age and cultivated as sapling. The altitude, the northern exposure, ideal for Nerello and the black pumice soil of the Volcano, allow for a unique body and fruit. Refinement lasts 12 months in small 5 hl French wood. The result is an extremely classy wine that enhances the minerality derived from the volcano. Also in the label of Alberelli di Giodo the protagonist is the little man-vine, which this time personifies the Nerello Mascalese and which, on the top of the volcano alone supports the world of wine because it interprets the Etna vineyards in purity.
