Tenuta Tascante ‘Contrada Rampante’ Etna Rosso (2021)

Tenuta Tascante ‘Contrada Rampante’ Etna Rosso (2021) – From steep, terraced vineyards on Etna’s northern slope, Contrada Rampante captures the mountain’s raw intensity and elegance. Crafted by Tenuta Tascante, the Tasca d’Almerita family’s Etna project, this Nerello Mascalese-driven red shows red currant, wild strawberry, crushed stone, and subtle spice. High elevation and volcanic soils bring tension, freshness, and fine-grained tannins, making this a strikingly transparent expression of Etna Rosso with both immediate charm and cellar potential.
