Patria's Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio offer a glimpse into the potential of this grape variety from Mount Etna. With its pale color, red fruit flavors, volcanic notes, high acidity, and firm yet fine tannins, these wines bring an aromatic and savory profile reminiscent of mountain grapes shaped by altitude, lava soils, and bright acidity. While lighter in body compared to many southern Italian reds, they still pack a serious structure that pairs well with dishes like mushrooms, poultry, pork, oily fish, and charred vegetables, making them a delightful choice for those who appreciate the elegance of aromatic reds such as Pinot Noir or Nebbiolo.
