It is enough to leave the coast of Catania and start climbing towards the top of the volcano to clearly perceive all the contrasts that make Sicily a magical and enchanting place. On one side the sea, blue and deep. On the other, an untamed vegetation that in summer fights with an increasingly extreme drought. Above, the white top of the mountain, often snow-capped, always surrounded by a thick blanket of clouds. All around, dark-colored ground. A land that you can tell has something special about it. Something that then, if you are lucky enough to taste a local wine, is also found in the glass. As in the case of this son of Etna, the Cavanera Rovo delle Coturnie, Etna DOC from Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio. It's hard to imagine a more volcanic blend than this. In the glass it has a beautiful, transparent and bright ruby red color. On the nose sophisticated notes of small red fruits, nutmeg and black pepper. A wine that smells of its smug volcanicity in the iron and mineral nuances. In the mouth it is full-bodied and pleasantly tannic. Of remarkable persistence, one sip is enough to make us feel like modern explorers discovering the mouth of the volcano.
