Product Notes

The Tenuta delle Terre Nere Etna Rosato wine is a beguiling vintage from Sicily, Italy, boasting an unparalleled freshness and delightful complexity. This splendid rosé exudes gentle fruity notes, encompassing delicate nuances of wild berries, mineral undertones with a faint floral finish. Sourced from the breathtaking slopes of Mount Etna, the volcanic soil adds striking depth, while the significant diurnal temperature shifts contribute to its remarkable acidity. A harmonious blend of old vine Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio, it manifests in an elegant, vibrant garnet hue. This wine is a delicate delight that's bound to dazzle your palate.

Tasting Notes

Soft-pressed to produce the faintest of onion-skin colours, this bristles with cooling red cherry and berry fruit, a hint of peach adds some allure whilst the touches of almond blossom, rock salt and sweet spice bring dimension and prolong the finish. Bright, refined and deeply satisfying without being haughty or complicated, Terre Nere’s is a truly compelling rosé.
