Black Sciare: imprints of Etna that give rise to unique micro-terroirs

With its eruptions, Etna produces sciare, lava layers, that through long physical-chemical processes give rise to sandy and cultivable soils, on the slopes of the volcano. Each lava flow, that took place in different historical periods, determines a specific soil composition, that makes the wine that comes from that micro-territory unique.
An heroic viticulture context, made special by the altitude (about 800 m a.s.l.) and the presence of the volcano.
An experience not to be missed.
