Susucaru Rosato Rosé 2024
Frank Cornelissen
With Susucaru Rosato 2024, Frank Cornelissen continues to push the boundaries of rosé. Born on the volcanic slopes of Etna, this Sicilian wine with a pale color and intense nuances is much more than a thirst-quenching rosé: it's a terroir-driven rosé, complex, structured, and deeply vibrant.
Made from a unique blend of indigenous grape varieties – Nerello Mascalese, Malvasia, Moscadella, and Catarratto – harvested by hand, this IGP Terre Siciliane wine is crafted without compromise: destemmed maceration for one week, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, no oenological additives, and a one-year aging in epoxy tanks to preserve the purity of the fruit.
The terroir plays a major role here. The black volcanic soils of Etna bring a striking mineral tension, almost saline, which structures the whole. On the nose, there's great aromatic complexity: fresh red fruits, white pepper, dried rose petals, and a slightly smoky touch. On the palate, it's a textured wine, between the fluidity of a rosé and the depth of a light red. The finish is long, persistent, marked by a noble bitterness and an almost tannic sensation.
Susucaru Rosato is a chameleon wine: perfect as an aperitif, with grilled meats, artisanal charcuterie, spicy dishes, or seared red meats. Served slightly chilled, it can also be cellared for a few years to reveal other facets. A cult, sought-after cuvée, at the crossroads of tradition and experimentation.
