Produced by the historic Nicolosi family estate, Contrada Monte Arso comes from vineyards on the southern slopes of Mount Etna, at elevations exceeding 800 meters. The vines grow on the slopes of an ancient volcanic cone, where distinctive red-orange volcanic soils and significant diurnal temperature variations contribute to the wine’s character. Aged in traditional chestnut barrels, the wine offers aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, rose petals, licorice, and balsamic herbs. The palate is elegant yet structured, with vibrant acidity, pronounced tannins, and a persistent mineral finish. A compelling expression of Nerello Mascalese that combines the power of Etna’s southern slopes with the finesse characteristic of high-altitude viticulture.
