Description: Feudo di Mezzo is one of the largest districts of DOC Etna, characterized by a homogeneous terroir but with clear qualitative variations. The best particles, such as the “Picture of Roses,” have a shadowy character with autumn suggestions in the spicy-resinated bouquet. Being the first area to be harvested, it produces wines that are open, generous and smooth. Of all the crus, Feudo di Mezzo offers a supremely velvety wine with suave tannins and an enveloping bouquet. It ages ineffably, gaining brightness with the passage of time.

Recommended pairings:

• Poultry
• Pork in milk or roast pork loin

Tenuta delle Terre Nere Etna Rosso Cru Feudo di Mezzo DOC 2020 is a wine that expresses the distinctive character of the Etna terroir, offering complexity, elegance and an incredible ability to age.
