선물용에트나 로소 "산 로렌조"는 시칠리아 화산 지역의 훌륭한 해석입니다. 부케는 붉은 과일과 고귀한 향신료의 향을 발산하며, 발삼과 나무의 힌트를 포함합니다. 바디는 뛰어난 균형을 이루며, 근육질이면서도 우아하고, 잘 다듬어진 타닌이 좋은 알코올 열과 얽혀 긴 깊은 조화를 이룹니다.
Girolamo Russo's Etna Rosso "San Lorenzo" is a wine born on the slopes of Mount Etna in the province of Catania. The winery was founded in 2005 thanks to the passion and knowledge of Giuseppe Russo, who picked up the legacy of his father, Girolamo, soon becoming a point of reference for wine production in the area. His idea is to recover his family's values, interpreting them in a modern key in order to make his business sustainable and futuristic. With this in mind, he has chosen a completely organic farming regime, a choice that has helped in the recovery of old, 100-year-old vines that otherwise would have been lost.
Girolamo Russo's Etna Rosso "San Lorenzo" vineyards grow in a favourable climate characterized by abundant rainfall that makes the soil flourish and nourishes the roots. The soil is of volcanic origin: lava spilled over time has created layer after layer different from each other, creating a diversity of composition that is also reflected in the final products. The name "San Lorenzo" refers to the district where the vineyards are located, set on gentle hillsides between 700 and 800 meters above sea level. Harvesting is by hand; alcoholic fermentation is triggered by the action of indigenous yeasts in steel, and the must subsequently macerate for 13 days on the skins. It ages 20 months in French barriques and 6 months in bottles.
The colour of Girolamo Russo's Etna Rosso "San Lorenzo" is an intense ruby red with brilliant reflections; the bouquet is multifaceted, characterized by notes of red berry fruits such as blackberry, plum and currant, in union with notes of herbs, mint and leather. On the palate, it is elegant with a dense network of tannins, symbolic of the territorial expression to which it belongs; important is the final persistence that draws the drinker in. In pairing excellently with local game, traditional grilled and stewed red meat cuts; also curious with aged cow's and sheep's milk cheeses. Perfect for the family holiday table to share a genuine product and the fruit of a wine artisan's experience.
