Information:

The estate. Sofia Bosco recovered the old property of Piano dei Daini in 2010. The estate sits on the northern side of Mount Etna at 700 m asl between the slopes of Solicchiata and Passopisciaro. The first written evidence of the estate’s history is found in an old manuscript dating back to 1669. Abate Coniglio from Castiglione describes this old domain, Piano dei Daini, as an area cultivated with vineyards and palmenti. The winery’s vision is dedicated to the father of this ancient land: the volcano.Inspired by the natural beauty and respect for this terroir, and a perfect balance between ancient traditions and modern technology, the Bosco family has dedicated all of its passion in the production of top quality wines of unique character and elegance, that are the true expression of this terroir.
Terrain. The proximity of Mount Nebrodi and Peloritani, forms a climatic sac, with rainfall and sunshine which allows for optimal grape ripening, particularly for the red grapes. The mineral composition of the sandy soil makes it permeable, ideal for oxygen circulation even in deeper layers. The volcanic soil is generous and allows for root apparatus to explore deep in the soil to nourish itself with water, even in the most arid vintages. The altitude allows for temperature changes from day to night to give excellent ripening seasons and extraordinary complexity to the wines. A harmonious synthesis of aromas and acidity, granting freshness and elegant sulphurous vitality to the wines.

Wine making:

Sourced from impossibly old pre-Phylloxera vines. Ancient vines up to 140 years old, each with its own personality, grow over rocks and drywalls, frozen in dance poses ranging from arabesque to pirouette. 

Aged in tonneau french oak barrels of 700 liters for at least 14 months, then in steel vats for at least 3 months and a minimum of 12 months in the bottle.

Description:

Forged in a beautiful new winery, the fruit is expertly expressed in a bouquet that offers pretty volcanic tones. You'll pick up smoke, dried fruit, cassis, wild herb and even a flash of candied orange peel.
