Etna Rosato 2022 Cottanera
The Etna Rosato 2022 by Cottanera is one of the most expressive rosés from Mount Etna, crafted from 100% Nerello Mascalese grapes cultivated on volcanic soils in the northern slopes of the volcano, within the renowned Contrada Cottanera and Diciassettesalme. At 750 meters above sea level, the vineyards enjoy cool temperatures and significant diurnal range, enhancing aromatic precision and freshness.
Vinification begins with a cold maceration at under 4°C for 4–5 hours, extracting color and delicate aromas, followed by a controlled fermentation at 17°C for about 20 days. The wine then ages on the lees in stainless steel tanks, with regular bâtonnage to enhance body and texture.
Its onion-skin color is elegant and luminous. The bouquet reveals fine floral notes of iris, wisteria, rose, complemented by herbal and citrus nuances. The palate is crisp, savory and mineral, with balanced fruit and a long, refined finish that evokes the stony essence of Etna’s volcanic terroir.
The Cottanera Etna Rosato is a vibrant and sophisticated wine, expressing both the freshness and the character of its unique origin. Perfect as an aperitif or paired with seafood, shellfish, risottos or light vegetarian dishes, it embodies the authentic volcanic soul of Sicily.
