An amalgamation of Nerello Mascalese grapes grown at various heights on Etna's northern flank. The higher elevations are typically located on gravelly soils with a coarser grain size, while the lower elevations are typically situated on finer and deeper soils composed of ancient lava flows that have now been oxidized and reduced to lava dust. This wine captures the essence of multiple distinct regions within a single bottle, providing an all-encompassing sense of place. The 2019 Passorosso effortlessly releases a heady bouquet of roses and cherries. It has a velvety texture with a refreshingly cool undercurrent of acidity and sweetness, making for an alluringly lively and fruit-forward flavor. The 2019 finishes strong, with lingering notes of spiced citrus and firm red candies giving way to a coating of round tannins that give the wine a characteristic dry texture.
