“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
A blend of Nerello Cappuccio and Nerello Mascalese.
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.
Made from a mixture of young and old, organic vines, this is an impressively pure wine. Medium in weight, but with firm, tight tannins and beautiful crisp fruit. A real joy to drink.
