"Versante Nord" Nerello Mascalese 2017 Eduardo Torres Acosta
The "Versante Nord" Nerello Mascalese is a natural Sicilian wine, produced by Eduardo Torres Acosta. It comes from old 50 year old vineyards destroyed on two plots: one in the Pietramarina district in Verzella and the other in the Marchesa district in Passopisciaro, between 550 and 700 metres above sea level. 80% of nerello mascalese, the rest with other native grapes, fermentation in cement tanks, maceration for 15 days before ageing for 16 months in 25 hectolitre Slavonian oak barrels, 3200 bottles produced. The "Versante Nord" by Eduardo Torres Acosta is a volcanic, magnetic and blood red of Etna, the result of the vinification of Nerello Mascalese for almost all, together with a mixture of other local white and red berry varieties. Wine made as in the past with artisan methods.
