Importer notes: "‘Cisterna Fuori’ means ‘outside cistern’ and is a reference to an ancient water cistern in the middle of this vineyard site. This vineyard has been owned by the Biondi family for many centuries and is also used to grow red grapes. The vines lie on the side of a spent crater, which dates 125 BCE, and is very steep with supporting dry stone terraced walls. Despite being just a stone’s throw away from the San Nicolo plot, this vineyard is subject to a drastically different sun exposure and temperature swing, resulting in an Etna Rosso of great power and complexity, a bit less demure than its cousin across the street. Savory and exotic spice give way to baked black cherries, as a sweet-sour tension quickly builds, showcasing purple and blue-toned wild berry fruits and saline-infused minerality. Silky-smooth, lifted by brisk acids."
