Nerello Mascalese
Nerello Mascalese is the main grape in the wines of the DOC Etna. She must be present for at least 80% in the Etna Rosso DOC. The grape grows at altitudes of 350 to 1000 meters. Nerello Mascalese is a late bloomer that produces wines that mature well with pleasant tannins and, above all, spicy aromas. Above all, it adds colour and alcohol to the wine. Often used in a blend with that other Nerello, the Nerello Cappuccio or Nerello Mantellato. The dense bunches weigh up to 1 kg and contain medium-sized grapes.
What does wine from the Nerello Mascale grape taste like?
The grape produces light-coloured red wines with fresh acidity and a perfumed floral character, supported by soft strawberry fruit. The young wines can sometimes be marked by stiff tannins, but after a few years of bottle aging, it is precisely these wines that evolve into truly unprecedentedly complex, perfumed gems.
At Grandcruwijnen, we think it is important that people can find their preferred flavor. That is why we came up with the idea of the sample box. This does not just consist of a number of wines, but of themed wines specially selected by our vinologists. With the sample boxes you can try different wines and find your own taste.
