Curation Note
The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01The DOC regulations mandate a wine of character, and this Riserva Contrada Blandano by Terra Costantino expresses it through a scrupulous selection of grapes from sapling and old vines, aimed at capturing the essence of the Viagrande territory.
-
Palate & Finish
02The prevalence of Nerello Mascalese, alongside Nerello Cappuccio, bestows surprising complexity, enriched by long aging in barrel and bottle.
-
At the Table
03In the glass, this Etna Rosso Riserva reveals itself with a vibrant structure and an elegance that foreshadows tasty pairings with succulent red meat dishes, game, or aged cheeses.
