First the distinct name draws you in and then the wine captivates you. Either way, there is no escaping the prospect of falling in love the Pietrarizzo, a high quality Nerello Mascalese wine, produced by the family estate of Tornatore in the appellation the wine is named after. Pietrarizzo is regarded as one of the best vineyard stretches to bear Nerello Mascalese fruit. The terraced vineyards 700m high atop the slopes of Mt. Etna, vines struggle for water in rocky soil, producing grapes with intense color and fruit character. Proximity to the live volcano of Mount Etna translates into minerality that compliments red fruit, herbs and finesse that comes from a year of barrel ageing.
