From our sommeliers

Frank Cornelissen's Munjebel Rosso "MC" is one of the most elegant expressions of Etna's Nerello Mascalese, increasingly a pilgrimage destination for all lovers of great wines. Frank started making Munjebel from individual contrade, the local geographical mentions, and this monolithic red comes from the clay and sandy vineyards of Monte Colla. On the nose there are fine hints of red and black fruit, which give way to enveloping citrus fruits aromas and typical mineral hints, a trademark of the volcano. The palate surprises with finesse, despite an important structure and great warmth, which meets a distinct and enveloping sapidity
