    Tenuta Antica Cavalleria DAM Etna Rosso: characterful volcanic wine from Sicily

    The Tenuta Antica Cavalleria DAM Etna Rosso is a red wine from the north of Mount Etna, where the vineyards are situated on volcanic slopes. The wine opens with aromas of blackberry, cherry, minerality, and a subtle spiciness. On the palate, a soft and round mouthfeel follows, supported by supple tannins that feel slightly sweet. The volcanic soil gives the wine its typical fresh tension and refined depth.

    • Origin: Etna Nord, Sicily
    • Grape varieties: Nerello Mascalese & Nerello Cappuccio
    • Aromas of ripe blackberries, cherries, and a subtle earthy touch take center stage.

    Tasting note

    The aroma combines red and dark fruit notes with mineral nuances and a light spiciness. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, supple, and harmonious, with beautifully integrated tannins. The balance between fruit, fresh acidity, and spices creates an elegant and long-lasting finish in which the influence of the volcanic terroir is clearly noticeable.
