A dark profile here with tar and graphite as well as earthy, leathery tones. Light- to medium-bodied, this has a lot of sweet fruit on the palate, crisp acidity and velvety, flavored tannins. Chewy finish with aging potential, otherwise ready to drink now. JAMES SUCKLING
Palermo architect Nino Bevilacqua and his partner, Alessia, didn’t relocate quite as far as some, with so many from around Italy and further drawn by the magic of Etna. Over a decade later, these adoptive ‘Etneans’ have devoted themselves to the renovation, replanting and refurbishment of the old vines and their terraces.
Plots were bought in diverse parcels and drawn together in their beautiful amphitheatre-like estate in the premier commune of Randazzo. They have created a remarkable property, acknowledged in equal measure for the look and style of the estate as for the regional authenticity of the wines. Two key ingredients for Terrazze dell’Etna are the lean volcanic soils in their Contrada, Bocca d’Orzo, and, equally, the altitude of the vineyards, which lie within Randazzo between 650 and 950 metres – some of the highest in the region.
