Rosato

1999 Etna Nerello Mascalese

Pro.Ma.T Sas Di Massimiliano Calabretta Rosato is a delightful expression of the Nerello Mascalese varietal hailing from the picturesque Etna region. This 1999 vintage presents a vibrant red hue, captivating the eye and hinting at its complexity. The wine showcases a light-bodied profile with a refreshing acidity that dances on the palate, bringing forth an invigorating sensation. The fruit intensity is notably expressive, featuring delightful notes of cherries and strawberries, which harmonize beautifully with subtle herbal undertones. Tannins are present but remain soft, providing structure without overwhelming the delicate nature of this rosé. As a dry wine, it offers a clean finish that makes it exceptionally food-friendly, inviting enjoyment alongside a variety of dishes. Whether sipped on its own or paired with culinary delights, this rosato radiates charm and elegance.

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
