If I could just use one word to describe the 2019 vintage for Passopisciaro it is purity. Purity of flavour of fruit, that highlights the underlying complexity that has made Etna so unique to Italian wine in the last ten years. Old vines, multiple lava flows and a pure, intensely ethereal vintage has allowed Passopisciaro to put together a stunning set of releases.
