The annual production of this boutique winery on Etna is just 9,000 bottles. At an altitude of 950 metres above sea level, the one and a half hectares of vines are divided into eight tiny plots and have been gradually bought up by the well-known Oenologist. The area is planted with Nerello Mascalese bush vines, which have been spared the phylloxera phylloxera and make their way through the lava-covered terraces.

The single vines, which are on average 80 to 100 years old, are cultivated in the traditional, low-bush Alberello style, to which the wine owes its name. Alberelli di Giodo is extremely elegant and flavoursome and represents the minerality and finesse typical of its volcanic growing region to a remarkable degree. SUPERIORE.DE

"Light, steely and energetic, this Nerello is already absolutely delicious and sums up the delicacy the grape is capable of in the right hands. It offers bright and sapid cherry fruit with a hint of blood orange, but should open up with more time in bottle. From Nerello Mascalese vines at around 850m above sea level in contrada Rampante."
