Etna Rosso DOC 2020 Feudo BIO Girolamo Russo

The Etna Rosso DOC 2020 Feudo BIO Girolamo Russo is an organic red wine that interprets one of the most fascinating denominations in Italy with personality. Signed by Girolamo Russo, it combines the identity of the Etna territory with the finesse of Nerello Mascalese, complemented by a small percentage of Nerello Cappuccio. It is an Etna Rosso with an elegant and deep profile, capable of harmoniously combining freshness, structure, and aromatic complexity.

Territory and wine style

This wine is born in Etna Rosso DOC, from grapes coming from Contrada Feudo (Randazzo), an area that well expresses the volcanic character of Etna and the vocation for producing refined, vertical, and territorial reds. The name Feudo identifies a precise selection within the denomination, designed to enhance a more defined and identity-driven expression of the area. The organic imprint adds another element of coherence with a production philosophy attentive to the vineyard and the purity of the fruit.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red. The olfactory profile is broad and complex: notes of blackberry, currant, and sour cherry emerge, accompanied by hints of Mediterranean herbs, balsamic nuances, and accents of leather and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is elegant, dynamic, and well-supported by an acidic vein that provides freshness and lift. The structure is excellent, the taste texture remains precise, and the finish stands out for its persistence and depth, with a balanced and never heavy progression.

Recommended pairings

The Etna Rosso DOC 2020 Feudo BIO Girolamo Russo pairs with great versatility to flavorful but not excessively rich dishes. It is ideal with roasted meats, noble poultry, lamb, mushrooms, traditional Sicilian preparations, and medium-intensity aged cheeses. It also expresses itself very well with delicate braised dishes, meat ragù, and dishes based on grilled vegetables or well-structured legumes. Its freshness makes it suitable for more refined menus as well.

Serving temperature

To best appreciate the Etna Rosso DOC 2020 Feudo BIO Girolamo Russo, a serving temperature between 16 and 18 °C is recommended. If the bottle has been stored at a high room temperature, it may be useful to open it a little in advance to encourage aromatic expression. A decanter is not essential, but brief aeration can be pleasant in the early years of evolution.
