Akìs Etna Rosato 2020

About the Winery: Tenuta Monte Gorna

Meet the Licciardello family, owners of a little gem of a winery located at the feet of Etna volcano some 720 meters above sea level, where the vines enjoy excellent climate with warmth during the day and cooler temperatures at night, a perfect balance for growing great Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccio and Catarratto grapes.

With only 4 hectares of vines all handpicked and organic, Tenuta Monte Gorna produces around 22,000 bottles a year which, in the world of wine, is very little! Their excellent Etna wines have a very distinctive minerality and beautiful aromas that will conquer even the most discerning wine connoisseur.

Akìs Etna Rosato 2020

£23.20

Tenute Monte Gorna has made only 4000 bottles of this rosé wine made with Nerello Mascalese grape. The small estate is surrounded by chestnut, oak and gorse woods that give the vineyard a medium temperate micro-climate ideal for the ripening of the grapes, with strong temperature changes, between day and night.

The volcanic origin and the altitude of the vineyards give this rosé wine a strong minerality, great freshness and a unique style. It is also distinctive for the richness of its floral and fruity aromas.

Excellent with dishes with a delicate flavour such as fish and shellfish. Roasted white meats, meats and cheeses.

With notes of rose hips, currants, wild strawberries, pink grapefruit, dehydrated fruit and spices. On the palate it offers a great freshness and minerality in the mouth, persistent and harmonious overall.
