Passopisciaro Contrada "P" Porcaria Terre Siciliane IGP 2022

Single vineyard wine from Contrada Porcaria, at an altitude of 650 meters on Etna, known for producing dark and concentrated expressions of nerello mascalese.

The soil is a fragile lava bed, contributing to the wine's intense minerality and structure.

The 2022 vintage was marked by hail and an unusually early harvest. The result was approximately 25% less yield.

The grapes were hand-sorted individually, and vinification was adjusted to preserve quality, freshness, and balance.

The result is a complex wine with notes of dried strawberry, smoke, herbs, and a salty, mineral bite. It is juicy, precise, and finishes with firm tannins.

The wine is made from 100% nerello mascalese from 70-100-year-old vines, fermented in steel and aged for 18 months in large neutral barrels.

Only 3,730 bottles were produced.
