Al Cantara Lu Veru Piaciri Etna Rosso

From the slopes of Mount Etna, one of the most distinctive and coveted wine regions in Europe, Al Cantara’s wines reflect the soul of the people and the land.

Al-Cantàra takes its name from the river which flows through the municipality of Randazzo where the winery and the vineyards are located. All farming and winemaking related to the vineyard are carried out with respect for the environment.

Al Cantàra also means ‘bridge’ in Arabic which emphasises the link with the Sicilian terroir and symbolises the union between wine, art and poetry. Owner Pucci Giuffrida is a devotee of fine poetry and for this reason all of the names of the wines are inspired by the poems by Sicilian authors.

Despite it's vintage this wine is still fresh with a red fruity character and a delicate balance between acidity and tannins. Much like Pinot Noir it is great paired with roast pork, duck or lamb dishes.
