IDDA Etna Rosso DOP 2019

Gaja wines have long been an integral part of Made in Italy, a recognizable brand and object of desire for all wine lovers. Angelo Gaia is a star on the world wine scene. A producer who is credited with transforming not only the international image and reputation of his Piedmont region, but also that of Italy. He has greatly influenced the processes of grape growing, winemaking, distribution and marketing. Gaia is one of the few brands that can compete with the best producers in Bordeaux and Burgundy in both quality and price. The Graci winery is located in Passopisharo, in northeastern Sicily. Here, on the slope of'Etna, vines have been cultivated for thousands of years. One of the reasons Alberto Aiello Graci bought the vineyards here in 2004 was to take up and carry on the centuries-old tradition. Graci's wines cannot exactly be called Sicilian: they are wines from'Etna. Not by chance, he chose as the winery's symbol the Cirneco dell'Etna, a greyhound bred on the island since'antiquity. Graci's wines are of great quality, organic made from grapes of native grape varieties such as Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Capuccio, Carricante and Catarratto.
