Passopiscaro only uses grapes from their oldest vineyards in Contrada Guardiola for this deep and nuanced Nerello Mascalese. At up to 1,000 meters above sea level, these vines sit near a 1947 lava flow, and they yield wine that’s aromatically complex with red fruit, violets, and herbs. The soft, round, full-bodied palate shows lively tannins and hints of balsamic and minerality.
