“A classic, traditional Nerello Mascalese with tannins and sweetness of ripe fruit. My vision of a traditional, balanced and rich Northern Valley Etna wine.” - Frank Cornelissen Grapes are from different vineyards, “partly from our best parcels where we produce our crus (Zottorinoto-Chiusa Spagnolo, Feudo di Mezzo-Porcaria, Pontale Palino) as well as designated vineyards for this specific wine (Rampante, Piano Daini and Crasà).” Vines are 60+ years in age. Destemmed and light crush, fermentation with native yeasts started with pied-de-cuve, with about 60 days of skin contact. Aged in neutral epoxy tanks from 2500 liters to 7000 liters, unfined, minimal sulphur, if at all. Bright ruby red in colour, very aromatic; with cinnamon, orange, rose petal, cherry, raspberry, smoky earth, black pepper and grilled rosemary. Cherry, wild strawberry, pomegranate, tarry earth and fresh acidity glide across silky, firm tannins. Cracked black peppercorn, grilled herbs and a trace of cherry linger on the savory finish. Engaging and refined. 100% Nerello Mascalese 12.5% Alcohol Frank Cornelissen ‘Munjebel Rosso’ Terre Siciliane IGP 2018 #vinobiologico #volcanicwine #etnawine #vinvivant #vinisiciliani #lowinterventionwine #nofilter #vinnaturel #organicwine #vinnature #drinkbetterwine #sicilianwine #vinoitaliano #oldvines #pieddecuve #italianwinelover #vinorosso #winereview #instavino #naturalwine #volcanicwines #winestagram #redwine #instawine #frankcornelissen #munjebelrosso2018 #terresiciliane #munjebelrosso #nerellomascalese #caravino
