The Soul of the Volcano, Doubled.

Why settle for a standard bottle when you can hold the "Vulkà" Magnum? Born from the black sands and high altitudes of Mount Etna, this 1.5L bottle isn't just a larger serving—it’s a statement.

The 2022 Vulkà Rosso is an authentic tribute to Sicily’s legendary volcano. A blend of indigenous Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio, it captures the raw energy of the mountain and refines it into a wine of remarkable elegance, mineral depth, and vibrant fruit.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: A brilliant, lively ruby red that catches the light like a gemstone.

  • The Nose: An intense and complex bouquet. Expect a rush of fresh red berries—think wild strawberries and Marasca cherries—intertwined with delicate floral notes of rose petal and a distinctive "volcanic" edge of flint and Mediterranean herbs.

     

  • The Palate: This is where the Etna terroir truly shines. It’s medium-bodied and beautifully balanced. The "Vulkà" offers a signature minerality (that lava stone grip) smoothed out by silky, well-integrated tannins. The finish is long, clean, and surprisingly fresh, leaving hints of spice and liquorice.

Why the Magnum?

Aside from looking incredible on a dinner table, the 1.5L Magnum format is the gold standard for wine enthusiasts. Because there is more wine and less oxygen (proportionally) in the bottle, the wine ages more slowly and gracefully than in a standard 750ml bottle. It’s the perfect size for a gathering of 4 to 6 people—or a very generous gift for someone who appreciates the finer things.

Pro Tip: The 2022 Vulkà Magnum often comes in a handsome wooden collector’s box, making it a "ready-to-go" centerpiece for your cellar or a stunning gift.


Perfect Pairings

The high acidity and mineral backbone of Etna Rosso make it one of the most versatile food wines in the world.

  • The Classics: Roast lamb with rosemary, grilled sausages, or a hearty Beef Tagliata.

  • Sicily’s Best: Pasta alla Norma (eggplant and salted ricotta) or Arancini with meat ragu.

  • Surprise Hit: Because of its elegance, it pairs beautifully with meaty fish like seared tuna or swordfish in a tomato-caper sauce.
