2020 Vini Franchetti Passopisciaro - Sicily - 6 Bottles (0.75L)

6x Passorosso Etna Rosso 2020 - Vini Franchetti - 75 cl (Lotto di 6 bottiglie) in original wooden case Information on the label Designation: Etna Rosso Denomination of Controlled Origin Wine name: Passorosso Producer: Vini Franchetti S.r.l. Soc. Agricola (Castiglione di Sicilia, Catania - Italy) Format: 75 cl / 750 ml (6 bottles) Vintage: 2020 Grape: 100% Nerello Mascalese (from vines aged between 70 and 100 years) Alcohol content: 15% vol. (ALC. 15% BY VOL.) Country of origin: Product of Italy Contains sulfites Organoleptic sheet Appearance: Light ruby red, transparent, typical of Nerello Mascalese, with bright garnet reflections. Nose: Complex and elegant aromatic profile. Notable notes of forest red fruits (raspberry, wild strawberry, and pomegranate), accompanied by mineral hints of volcanic ash, graphite, Mediterranean scrub, sweet spices, leather, and a light floral trace of violet. Palate: On the palate it presents as rich, warm and deep, well supported by extraordinary mineral freshness. The tannic structure is dense but smooth, offering great balance and a persistent finish, savory and pleasantly spicy. Food pairings: cuts and dishes based on red meats and game (beef fillet, boar stew, roasted kid). Rich Sicilian pasta dishes, such as pasta alla Norma or macaroni with pork sauce. Cured meats and aged cheeses, in particular Ragusa DOP or Sicilian peppered pecorino. Dishes with porcini mushrooms or truffle. Recommended glass: A wide red wine glass (Burgundy-type). Characteristics: The broad belly of the glass allows the wine to oxygenate gradually and fully release the delicate and complex volcanic aroma pattern. Serving temperature: 16 - 18 °C. Curiosity about the cellar and producer: Passopisciaro (now Vini Franchetti) was founded in 2000 by the visionary vintner Andrea Franchetti on the northern slope of Etna, at about a thousand meters above sea level. Franchetti was among the great pioneers of the Etna wine renaissance, sensing early on the untapped potential of old Nerello Mascalese bush vines rooted in lava and ash plains. The "Passorosso" represents the most authentic soul of Etna according to the winery’s vision: a blend of grapes from different contrade located at different altitudes, able to fuse in a single wine the complete expression of the volcanic terroir."}]}should be valid JSON?
