TASTING_NOTES_HEADING_BLACK

An aromatic nose with fresh flowers, herbs, almonds, pears and a touch of nougat. Medium body with bright acidity. Good minerality combined with a zestiness to the mid-palate giving it vibrancy and character. Plenty of lemon notes towards the salivating finish. James Suckling

Producer

Tornatore

The agricultural activity of the Tornatore Winery is based on the ownership of 110 hectares of which 60 hectares of vineyards. As a consequence, Tornatore’s vineyards are one of the largest the Etna DOC production area. These vineyards count several locations in different districts: among them the remarkable contrade of Bragaseggi, Piano dei Daini, Zottorinotto, Pietrarizzo, Malpasso, Pietramarina, Torre Guarino, Carranco and Trimarchisa, all in the Castiglione di Sicilia Municipality. The altitude ranges from 550 to 700 meters above sea level and the age of the vineyards varies from 3 to 40 years for the Reds and 3 to 10 years for the Whites. The Tornatore’s vineyards have been recently reorganised in order to improve the quality standards and maintain the bond both with the territory and the winemaking traditions (high plant density, rigidly native variety). Particular attention has been paid to the processing of our vineyards. A high number of vines per hectare (approx. 6,000) has been maintained and an upwards-trained vertical-trellised system
