Barone Villagrande Etna Rosato - 2024 750ml

Description

This Etna Rosato combines 90% Nerello Mascalese with 10% Carricante from the Milo area. The unusual inclusion of a white grape reinforces the rosé’s freshness and volcanic identity. Wild strawberry, sour cherry and blood orange meet flowers, herbs and a light smoky-mineral note. Nerello Mascalese provides perfume and delicate structure, while Carricante sharpens the wine’s citrus and saline qualities. Dry and refreshing but not insubstantial, it pairs with tuna, charcuterie, pizza, grilled vegetables and tomato-based dishes. CT 91

Barone Villagrande Salina Bianco IGT - 2024 750ml

2024 - Etna - 21. Etna Bianco - 750ml - 189 ILS

This island white is led by 40% Malvasia delle Lipari, with Rucignola, Catarratto and other local grapes making up the remaining blend. It reflects Salina’s maritime environment rather than Etna’s high volcanic slopes. Malvasia brings flowers, citrus and aromatic Mediterranean herbs, while the other varieties contribute orchard fruit, texture and freshness. A saline, sea-breeze quality should run through the wine’s dry finish. Its aromatic yet refreshing character makes it an excellent match for grilled fish, shellfish, capers, olives, fresh cheese and Sicilian vegetable dishes.
