Vineyard

The 50-year-old vines thrive in a half-hectare vineyard in Contrada Sciaranuova on the northern flank of Mount Etna. The name ‘Pirrera’ refers to the presence of volcanic rocks originating from the 1614 Etna eruption. Furthermore, sandstone and ash are also found in this soil located at an altitude of 850 metres.

WIJN FICHE

Vinification

Fermentation in concrete tanks starts spontaneously due to indigenous yeasts. This process, which takes 15 days, occurs alongside maceration and is not temperature-controlled. The 28-month aging takes place in a mix of old 228-liter oak barrels and concrete tanks.
