Etna Rosato DBE - Tenuta Solisciaro 2024
Wijnen van de wijnmakerDe Etna Rosato van DBE - Tenuta Solisciaro is een monovarietale rosé van Nerello Mascalese-druiven die aan de noordzijde van de Siciliaanse vulkaan groeit. Deze wijn is elegant en licht, en tegelijkertijd fris en levendig, in staat om te verbazen met zijn extreem fruitige tonen van kers, aardbei en kleine bosvruchten. Na een maceratie van 48 uur rijpt deze Etna Rosato zes maanden in roestvrijstalen tanks en eenmaal geopend, raden we aan deze te combineren met een voorgerecht van vis of seizoensgroenten
The Etna Rosato DBE – Tenuta Solisciaro from the renowned Sicilian winery De Bartoli represents a delightful pink interpretation of Nerello Mascalese grown on the slopes of Mount Etna. The DBE project is one of the latest ventures by De Bartoli, as the family, known for producing some of the most iconic wines in western Sicily, has decided to embark on this adventure on the opposite side of the island, in the Etna region, one of the most fashionable wine areas in modern times. The name “DBE” stands for “De Bartoli Etna.”
Tenuta Solisciaro – DBE Etna Rosato De Bartoli is made solely from Nerello Mascalese grapes cultivated on the northern slope of Etna, on volcanic sandy soils at an altitude of 750 meters above sea level and facing south. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately transported to the winery, where they are vinified into rosé through a 48-hour skin maceration and alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, all under controlled temperature to enhance the aromas of the finished wine. During fermentation, periodic pump-overs are conducted, and the subsequent maturation phase, lasting 6 months, also takes place in steel containers. Finally, after a brief rest in the bottle, the wine is ready for market release.
The color of Etna Rosato De Bartoli DBE – Tenuta Solisciaro is a light pink with subtle amber reflections. Tempting aromas of cherry jam, ripe strawberry, berries, and Mediterranean herbs define the olfactory profile, accompanied by faint earthy notes. On the palate, it is fresh and vibrant, with a refined savory-mineral streak that complements the red fruit sensations in the finish.
