Organic/Bio With San Lorenzo, one of Terre Nere’s three "Grande Terroir Ellittico" wines, so designated because of their very rare and pure volcanic sand soils from the Ellittico eruptions dating from 15,000 to 60,000 years ago. Here the soils is completely covered in lava rocks – from pebbles to fist-sized – the need to be piled aside to plant new vines. At 600-700 meters elevation, this is smack in the middle of the Cru zone and delivers a wine that De Grazia says “is perhaps the most complete: just as a wide-angle lens includes the widest panorama, so our Calderara seems to contain and exhibit the widest spectrum of flavors, aromas and nuances.” From next year through 2035.
Vinous: 94 Points
“From the moment the glass is tilted, the 2021 Etna Rosso Calderara Sottana Vineyard shines through as crushed stones, ash and sweet smoke give way to vivid black cherries and autumnal spice. The 2021 Etna Rosso is elegant, silky and deeply textural, with salty mineral tones and gobs of red and black fruits, all perfectly maintained by a core of vibrant acidity. This is complex yet full of energy and sultry depths, tapering off saline and structured with grippy tannins that frame a lasting resonance of licorice and plums. These old vines handled the drought of the vintage beautifully, showing only in the grit of its tannins. Otherwise, the 2021 is pure magic.”
