Donnafugata Etna Rosso Sul Vulcano 2022

Donnafugata Etna Rosso Sul Vulcano 2022 is a vivid expression of Mount Etna, one of Europe’s most dramatic and celebrated wine regions. Made from Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio, it captures the mountain’s volcanic energy in a wine that is refined, fragrant, and unmistakably Sicilian.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright ruby-red color with lively garnet reflections. The bouquet is elegant and lifted, with red berries, wild herbs, violet, and a subtle mineral smokiness that hints at its volcanic origin. On the palate, it is fresh and graceful, with fine tannins, juicy red fruit, savory spice, and a distinct salty-mineral edge that gives the wine real character. Its balance and structure suggest good short- to medium-term aging potential, allowing its floral and mineral notes to deepen over time.

Production
Sul Vulcano comes from the volcanic soils of Etna in Sicily, where altitude, cool nights, and strong day-to-night temperature shifts help preserve freshness and aromatic precision. The grapes are carefully selected and vinified to highlight purity, finesse, and the transparent expression of the terroir, rather than overt extraction or oak influence.

Food & Serving
This is a versatile food wine that pairs beautifully with grilled tuna, roast poultry, mushroom dishes, Mediterranean vegetables, and Sicilian-style pasta. Serve it slightly cool, around 16-18°C, and decanting for about 20-30 minutes can help open up its aromatic complexity.

Producer
Donnafugata is one of Sicily’s most respected producers, known for combining traditional island character with modern winemaking craftsmanship. The estate has played an important role in elevating Sicilian wine on the international stage, with a strong reputation for expressive, quality-driven wines that reflect their origin with clarity and style.
