"I Vigneri Etna Rosso is a pure, ancient and genuine wine. Winemaking is carried out in the Palmento, as has always been done on Mt. Etna, without refrigeration equipment and no aging in wood. Vineyard cultivation is done by hand using natural products. During winemaking, refrigeration and biotechnologies are not used. Transfer and bottling are carried out according to the phases of the moon." - I Vigneri, Winemaker
"The 2024 Rosso I Vigneri wafts up with a beguiling blend of crushed ashen stone, dried rose, lavender and smoky black cherry. This is juicy in character yet deep and complex, with perfumed wild berry fruits and crunchy mineral tones as a mix of brisk acidity and edgy tannins adds youthful tension toward the close. It leaves the palate completely refreshed, even as the cheeks pucker and notes of raspberry and spice slowly fade. I could also imagine this with a slight chill. It's a total pleasure to taste.
