2015  

Varietal: Falanghina -- Tenuta Scuotto aims to provide the market with products that are different, yet authentic expression of the terroir; products which are able to convey their unique identity when tasted. Each aspect of their production is characterised by respect for the territory, at the same time avoiding uniformity: limited quantity to achieve the best, attention to detail, selective harvesting done by hand and finally ageing. Our ambition is represented by the idea of matching Tenuta SCUOTTO's wine with a well-defined lifestyle - true pleasure implies no compromise on quality.

2015  Calderara Sottana Vechie Vigne

Calderara Sottana Vechie Vigne -- Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio -- Colour : pale ruby with mahogany hues. -- Nose : penetrating bouquet, rich ripe fruit and spice. --Flavour : structured, full and complex, with rich tannic feel. The estate is located on the northern slopes of the volcano, with vineyards between the village of Solicchiata and the town of Randazzo, the area historically recognized as the finest in the appellation for fine red wines. The property consists of over 30 hectares, divided into 10 parcels in four crus, with a total vineyard surface of 23 hectares. Except for 6 hectares recently planted, the vines of the rest are between 50 and 100 years old. The vines of one parcel, having survived phylloxera, have reached the venerable age of 130-140 years old. Four parcels lie in Calderara Sottana at an elevation of 600-700 metres. By far the rockiest cru in the appellation, in the roughest parts you can’t see the soil for the black volcanic pumice carpeting the vineyards. Two vineyards lie in Guardiola, between 800 and 900 metres altitude, on very poor soil: volcanic sand mixed with basaltic pebbles and traces of ash. Two more properties lie in Feudo di Mezzo. Very old vines, also terraced, traditional alberello plantings, very tightly spaced, also worked exclusively by hand. Loose deep volcanic ash roughed up by a good measure of small volcanic pebbles. Two vineyards lie in Santo Spirito. Besides estate owned vineyards, Terre Nere has long term leases on 4 hectares and buys grapes from small local vignerons who follow organic procedures. All the wines are produced from local varieties, and all are D.O.C. Etna. Two versions of Etna Bianco are produced.

2010  Tenuta Montebello IGT

"A compelling blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, the 2010 Picconero Tenuta Montebello packs a powerful punch in terms of density and concentration. This expression is rich and chewy with dark cherry and blackberry as protagonist. Solid supporting roles are played by tobacco, spice and bitter dark chocolate. The 2010 vintage shows a superior sense of finesse and silkiness in the mouth. Picconero can be put aside for long cellar aging." - 94pts WA
