“Terre Nere’s wines all possessed unbelievable freshness and complexity as well as huge perfumes that suggested Pinot Noir…These wines are astonishingly complex and ethereal efforts from the hillsides of Mt. Etna in Sicily.” – Robert Parker
The wines of Terre Nere are from slope on the North of Mt Etna, most between 50-100 yrs old and one parcel having survived the phylloxera is 130-140 years old. Varying in elevation from 600-1000m and soils that change even within the individual crus themselves, these are wines that speak to a place.
Tenuta delle Terre Nere first made their Rosé in 2007. Made with the Nerello Mascalese grape, this is not an easy wine to make and a fine line has to be ran. The results however are amazing. A bright and vibrant wine, with sophistication and layers of complexity.
