Girolamo Russo's Etna Rosso 'Piano delle Colombe' is a wine of great value that comes from the prestigious cru San Lorenzo in Randazzo. It is a true gem of the volcano: the run is very limited and the precious vines are over eighty years old growing on volcanic soils rich in sand at great height. The wine ferments spontaneously in open vats and is followed with great care by the producer during the 30 months of ageing between cask and bottle. Intense hints of red fruits dominate the nose, introducing the mineral profile of this red, rich in iodine and wet stone hints. On the palate, it amazes with the fineness of its tannins and marked savouriness. A great wine with strong typicality
