Site: VIGNA POGGIO stretches for about 2 hectars in Monte La Guardia, a fraction of the commune of Randazzo located on the northern slope of Etna. The vineyards are century old. Bush-trained and supported by the typical chestnut pole, with a density of about 10.000 vines per hectar, are planted on lava terraces in the context of a unique striking landscape.

Grapes: 100% Nerello Mascalese

Fermentation and Aging: Grapes harvested naturally and fermented in stainless steel vats at controlled temperature. The wine ages for 20 to 24 months in wood and 2 years in bottle.

Notes: Reseca is a classic red still wine of the Etna area. The particular volcanic soil and the local high hill climate, marked by releavant day-night temperature swing, confer to this cru the unique and unmistakable flavours and mouthfeel typical of the Etnean wines.

Vintage: 2007 (Magnum is 2004)

Available in two sizes: 750ml and magnum.
