Wine Description
Tasca Tascante Contrada Sciaranuova Nerello Mascalese 2019 is a distinguished wine from the heart of the Etna DOC region, a volcanic paradise that gives this wine its distinctive character. Sourced from the volcanic soils of Sciaranuova, located at an average elevation of 730 meters above sea level, this wine is crafted from the indigenous Nerello Mascalese grape. The region's unique terroir, shaped by volcanic activity between 40,000 and 4,000 years ago, contributes to the wine's complexity and elegance.

On the nose, the wine bursts with vibrant red and black fruit aromas, complemented by subtle hints of volcanic minerality that are typical of the Etna terroir. The palate is full-bodied, with the deep flavors of ripe cherries, blackberries, and plums taking center stage. The tannins are firm yet finely structured, providing excellent balance and texture. Bright acidity lifts the finish, enhancing the wine's natural fragrance and providing a refreshing, lingering aftertaste. This wine truly captures the essence of its volcanic origins, offering a compelling and memorable experience with each sip.

Winery	The large Regaleali estate, high in the central Sicilian hills, has been in the hands of the noble Tasca family since 1830. Ever since, the property has been run according to the best principles of the agricultural aristocracy: with one eye firmly on quality and the other on experimentation. Tasca’s large range is the product of the family’s most successful innovations, including short pruning for lower yields, the championing of local Inzolia and Nero d’Avola vines, the introduction of French varieties, and the use of barriques and temperature control. They have also been developing vineyards outside their main base at Regaleali. There is wonderful passito Malvasia made on the Aeolian island of Salina, and more recently, the family established their Tascante estate on the north-facing slopes of Mount Etna. The tradition and terroir of each location are captured with great clarity in the bottle. This is a singularly accomplished and increasingly complete range of Sicilian wines.
