Coming from a parcel located at high altitudes, it benefits from strong temperature fluctuations that enhance its aromas and freshness. The grape variety is \u003cstrong\u003ePinot Noir\u003c\/strong\u003e, one of the most refined varieties in the world, presented here in a version with a decisive yet harmonious character. It has a medium body, supported by a fine tannic structure and a marked acidity that makes it lively and persistent on the palate.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVintage Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe 2020 vintage was characterized by a balanced climate, with moderate temperatures and excellent ventilation. The temperature fluctuations between day and night favored a slow and complete ripening of the grapes, concentrating aromas and intensity. Manual harvesting, carried out at perfect ripeness, allowed only the best bunches to be selected, preserving the typicality of the Etna territory.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWinemaking and Aging\u003c\/h3\u003e\nFermentation occurs spontaneously, thanks to the yeasts naturally present on the skins. This is followed by a short \u003cstrong\u003emaceration\u003c\/strong\u003e of about five days in steel tanks, a phase in which the skins remain in contact with the must to extract color, aroma, and structure. Aging continues in \u003cstrong\u003eused barriques\u003c\/strong\u003e, where the wine slowly matures, softening the tannins without covering the varietal aromas. Bottling takes place without fining or filtration, a choice that preserves the purity and aromatic complexity of the wine.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eColor\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe color of \u003cstrong\u003eTerre Siciliane Pinot Nero IGT 2020 - Calabretta\u003c\/strong\u003e is a luminous ruby red, with garnet reflections that already reveal an elegant evolution.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNose\u003c\/h3\u003e\nOn the nose, it opens with an intense and fine bouquet: red fruits like cherry and raspberry intertwine with floral notes and light spicy nuances. A mineral touch, typical of volcanic soils, gives complexity and originality to the aromatic profile.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTaste\u003c\/h3\u003e\nOn the palate, it is balanced and refined. The structure is lean but profound, with soft and well-integrated \u003cstrong\u003etannins\u003c\/strong\u003e.
