    About The Varietal

    Nerello Mascalese

    Nerello Mascalese is a prestigious black-skinned grape variety, primarily cultivated on the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily. Wines made from Nerello Mascalese grapes often possess a fragrance that is reminiscent of the noble wines of Barolo and Burgundy.
