TENUTA DI CASTELLARO offers a TABLE RED WINE made from Nerello Mascalese grapes, with 80% of the blend coming from this grape. Originating in Italy, this wine showcases the pale color and red fruit flavors typical of Etna red grapes. With volcanic influences and high acidity, it delivers savory notes and firm yet fine tannins, making for a structured but elegant palate reminiscent of mountain wines shaped by altitude and lava soils. Whether you prefer Pinot Noir or Nebbiolo, this wine provides a Sicilian twist that is both delicate in appearance and serious in structure, complementing dishes like mushrooms, poultry, pork, oily fish, and charred vegetables.
