Tasting notes

Firm and dense, this red delivers rich flavors of blackberry, fig, cocoa, licorice and mineral, set in a thick texture, supported by well-integrated tannins and kept lively by balsamic acidity. Savory, even austere, yet harmonious and complete.

About this wine

Antichi Vinai is a winery located on the slopes of Mount Etna, in the heart of Sicily. With a long history dating back to the early 1900s, the winery is known for producing some of the finest wines in Italy, including the Petra Lava Etna Rosso. This red wine is made from a blend of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio grapes, which are grown on the slopes of Mount Etna. It is aged in oak barrels for 12 months, giving it a complex and rich flavour profile with a deep ruby colour and a bouquet of red fruits, spices, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and well-structured, with a long and persistent finish.

Antichi Vinai is known for its traditional style of winemaking, which involves using only the finest grapes and allowing the wine to age slowly in oak barrels. This approach results in wines that are rich, complex, and full of character. The Petra Lava Etna Rosso is a perfect example of this style, and it is sure to impress even the most discerning wine connoisseur.

Overall, Antichi Vinai is a winery that is steeped in history and tradition, and its wines are a testament to the skill and dedication of its winemakers. The Petra Lava Etna Rosso is a must-try for anyone who appreciates fine wine, and it is sure to rank highly in Google searches for wines from this producer.
