Etna Rosso Munjebel 2020 Cornelissen

Etna Rosso Munjebel 2020 is a fine Sicilian wine produced by Frank Cornelissen. It is made from pure Nerello Mascalese from old vines planted with free standing trees that are over 60 years old in the Chiusa Spagnolo, Monte Colla, Porcaria, Crasa and Piano Daini districts on the northern slopes of Etna.

No chemical or synthetic substances are used in the vineyard, and the same applies in the cellar, where alcoholic fermentation is carried out spontaneously using only indigenous yeasts in fibreglass tanks. It then matures for 18 months in neutral fibreglass tanks and is then bottled without filtration or the addition of sulphites.

The Cornelissen Munjebel 2020 has an intense ruby red colour. On the nose it expresses an intense and complex bouquet of small wild fruits such as blackberries, aromas of Mediterranean scrub, spices and citrus peel and mineral notes, while the taste is rich and powerful but balanced by an incredible freshness and flavour that make it a very elegant wine.

CORNELISSEN

Frank Cornelissen is the reference point of Sicilian Etna wine, his natural wines tell the full story of the terroir from which they are born. His production philosophy is based on the non-intervention in the vineyard and in the cellar, for his natural Sicilian wines no additives or sulphur dioxide are used, the fermentation is spontaneous and the vinification takes place in terracotta jars buried in the lava stone.

"Before being good a wine must be true" this is his philosophy, so important that it is engraved at the entrance of his cellar, in the North side of Etna.
