Description
This wine is part of the extraordinarily limited-release series of Contrada wines by cult winemaking hero, Frank Cornellissen.
Belgian native turned cult natural winemaking hero, Frank Cornelissen makes some of the most intriguing raw wines in Sicily's Etna region.
Cornelissen rejects the notion of interfering with Mother Earth at any point in the grape-growing and winemaking process. No additions of any kind - neither in the vineyard nor the cellar - just a stripped-back representation of some of the world's most fascinating volcanic terroir.
Scrambling for allocations of these wines regularly hits a fever pitch. They are only ever available for a limited time. They are one of the gems of the natural wine world.

"Lovely cool berry, orange blossom, pumice, smoke and lava aromas, but subtle and complex. Bark and mushroom, too. Full-bodied and very structured with powerful tannins that are polished and thought-provoking. This needs time to soften. Clearly one for the cellar. Best after 2026."
