BIO-DEM LunaGaia Logistilla Nerello Mascalese Luna Gaia 2023
Waarom het het proberen waard is
From the volcanic slopes of Etna comes this ancient grape variety, cultivated for centuries in Mascali's distinctive soils. Spontaneously fermented with natural yeasts, this elegant red opens with ripe red fruits and violets, then reveals rustic earthy notes, dried spices and generous fruit. The finish is savory and long, showing the signature volcanic minerality that makes Nerello so compelling. A biodynamic Sicilian red that brings both power and refinement to your glass.
