An immersion in an exceptional volcanic terroir


The Munjebel CS 2021 is a captivating interpretation of Nerello Mascalese, from an ungrafted vineyard located in the Zottorinoto contrada, more precisely in the single plot of Chiusa Spagnolo. Nestled in a natural lava amphitheater and planted in 1925 at an altitude of 620 meters, this exceptional vineyard produces a wine that is both deep and tannic, offering a distinct personality, reminiscent of the nobility of Nebbiolo wines.

A powerful and racy red


The dark ruby ​​color of the Munjebel CS 2021 already announces its depth. The nose opens with intense spicy aromas, mixed with notes of ripe red fruits and a saline minerality specific to basalt soils. On the palate, this wine reveals an imposing structure with firm but elegant tannins, a beautiful liveliness and a complexity marked by a long finish on spicy and mineral nuances. Serve between 14 and 16°C after decanting to appreciate all its richness.

A companion for fine dining


Perfect for enhancing grilled or stewed red meat dishes, this wine also brilliantly accompanies Mediterranean dishes rich in flavor. Its depth and character make it an ideal choice for gourmet meals, where it will reveal all its finesse and power.

With extended aging potential, the Munjebel CS 2021 embodies the excellence of Etna wines, uniting tradition, terroir and mastery in a masterful cuvée that will seduce lovers of natural and expressive wines.
