Notes from Terre Nere:
"Proprietor Marc de Grazia is one of the pioneers of the Etna. Not only was he among the first producers to recognize the value of these once-forgotten, ancient terroirs, he also was the first producer to bring attention to the specific qualities of these vineyards by bottling single-parcel Nerellos that have become reference-point wines for the Etna.
Sourced from 5 to 50 year old vines between the townships of Randazzo and Castiglione di Sicilia (Catania)"
