Nerello Mascalese gives excellent rosés and Etna Rosato from younger vines in different parts of the zone, is a rosé that is imprinted in memory. A real firework of intensity and minerality, it is nothing like the candied fruit and sweetness that comes to mind when it comes to rosé wines. Serious, with pulsating energy and tensions, salty minerality and...

"Les Pierres Plates" comes from the homonymous vineyard in Reuilly on limestone soils filled with fossilized shells in an area that was once the bottom of a large sea.

The Vajra family avoid a more fancy or modern version of the variety that would mean new barrique in plenty, leaving their classic Barbera to rest solely on stainless steel tanks. And even though it remains a wine with toned alcohol, strength and intensity, the wonderful fruit of the variety shines on through clearly and reminds of wild cherries and...
