Brilliant ruby red. Complex and intense nose with floral hints and notes of red fruit. A lively and smooth taste, with strong minerality and an intense fruity finish.Perfectly pairs with tasty pasta dishes, roasted and grilled meats, cold cuts and semi-aged cheeses.

Here’s a new discovery from Tenute Nicosia. The 2018 Etna Rosso Lenza di Munti sees its fruit sourced from a vineyard site at 720 meters above sea level on the lava-rich slopes of Etna. Nerello Mascalese (85%) and Nerello Cappuccio (15%) are used in the blend. You get a lot of elegance here, but the wine also offers a lot of typicity with aromas that you can only get with these grapes. Wild cherry and cassis cede to ashy soil and a spicy pinch of crushed white peppercorn. This is a solid new addition to the Tenute Nicosia portfolio of Etna reds.

Aromatic, with graphite, violet and spice notes, this balanced, easy-drinking red offers flavors of ripe cherry and plum fruit, with light tannins. Drink now. 5,000 cases made, 1,000 cases imported.
