Idda Etna Rosso DOP

Description

Idda Etna Rosso DOP is a distinguished red wine from the slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily, produced with the indigenous Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio grapes. The volcanic soils of this unique terroir infuse the wine with complexity and a distinctive mineral character, making it a true reflection of its environment.

In the glass, Idda Etna Rosso DOP has a brilliant ruby-red color, which deepens with age. The wine offers an aromatic bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries, strawberries, and raspberries, balanced by subtle earthy notes of tobacco, spices, and a hint of volcanic minerality. These aromas are supported by a delicate trace of floral notes, adding a sense of elegance to the wine’s profile.

On the palate, Idda Etna Rosso DOP is medium-bodied with a smooth texture, well-integrated tannins, and vibrant acidity. The wine showcases the red fruit flavors, accented by nuances of herbs and a distinctive minerality that is characteristic of the Etna region. Its balanced structure and long, elegant finish make it a pleasure to drink and pair with food.

Idda Etna Rosso DOP pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes, including grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and pasta with rich sauces. It also complements Sicilian specialties, such as caponata and eggplant parmigiana, making it a versatile wine for many occasions.
