Our cru Etna Rosso Doc Contrada Diciasettesalme presents red berries on the nose such as raspberries, strawberries and blackberries and turns towards notes of herbs such as mallow, thyme and juniper accompanied by mineral sensations. On the palate it is very broad, the tannins are perfectly balanced and the finish is long and delicately balsamic.
