Passopisciaro Passorosso Terre Siciliane IGP 2023

Passorosso is Andrea Franchetti’s vivid portrait of Etna, created from 70-100-year-old nerello mascalese vines in contrade such as Malpasso, Guardiola, and Santo Spirito.

The vineyards are located between 550 and 1,000 meters in altitude, on soils of both gravelly, younger lava and deeper, oxidized volcanic soil.

The wine is light, clean, and unfiltered with red berries, dried herbs, and a pronounced minerality.

It ages in large, neutral barrels and develops notes of camphor, sandalwood, and warm spices with age.

Perfect with grilled meats, mushrooms, or of course, Sicilian cuisine.

Classified as Etna Rosso DOC since 2014 – a wine that brings together altitude, soil, and Franchetti’s uncompromising style into one clear expression.
