Vineyard
This tiny, north-facing vineyard, spanning just half a hectare, is situated on the 700-meter-high slopes of Portella in Castiglione di Sicilia. The non-volcanic soil consists of sandstone sediments interwoven with light-colored clay and quartz. In addition to the 70-year-old Nerello Mascalese vines, you'll also find 10% local varieties.
Vinification
Fermentation in concrete tanks starts spontaneously with indigenous yeasts. This process, which takes 15 days, runs concurrently with maceration and is not temperature-controlled. The 11-month maturation takes place in a mix of wooden barrels and concrete tanks.

Eduardo Torres Acosta behoort tot de meest talentvolle jonge wijnmakers van de Etna. Op de noordelijke flanken van de vulkaan creëert hij met oude wijnstokken, minimale interventie en veel respect voor het terroir verfijnde wijnen die het unieke vulkanische karakter van Sicilië op pure wijze weerspiegelen.
