Etna Terroir

Among the different ways to evaluate, describe and introduce a wine, there is the term "terroir". A granted term, perhaps inflated for many sommeliers, professionals or amateurs, but at the same time a not very known expression by those who do not use the wine to "travel", to understand the reality of a complicated territory characterized by many facets: ETNA.

Its grandeur, its harsh environment, its almost prohibitive shares for growing grapes, its hundred–year–old rabid show of how our planet is made, that here shows exclusively one of the greatest heritages of the current viticulture.

In a unique tasting and never proposed in the Molise region, stories of heroic men than of extraordinary wines, in symbiosis with a restless environment like the heart of a lover.

Archineri, Ciro Biondi more than names of winemakers, names of passionate and headstrong men to know through difficult to forget sips of emotions, that go beyond the simple pleasure of taste, told by those who have always lived like them this land, every day for generations: Pietro Caravello.
