Animalucente 2022
Vintage Notes
Etna Volcano always reserves cold and snowy periods during the summer season. Frequent rains and some snowfalls, keep temperatures low until spring, then the explosion of the new season brings green vegetation back to the vineyards, which divided into small plots maintained as originally, host even very old plants, in perfect symbiosis with the land. The 2021 saw temperature peaks constantly lowered by the abundant ventilation that characterizes the volcano. Ripening arrived on time in late October, with fresh, healthy grapes, the ultimate expression of Etna’s terroir.
