About the Winery
Azienda Agricola Tornatore
Out of a Sicilian family heritage that traces back to the 17th century, the Tornatore’s Mount Etna wine ventures began in 1865. Today the family’s operations are headed by Giuseppe Tornatore, a businessman whose expertise led to the acquisition of some of the region’s finest north-facing vineyards in the early 2000’s. That heritage and the Tornatore’s profound respect and understanding of the land is showcased in wines that capture the essence of Etna, deftly balancing concentrated flavors, complexity, freshness and refinement.
The company lies in the northern side of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe. The soils have volcanic origin and were created through the disintegration of lava, ash and stones from previous volcanic eruptions. The climate on the northern side of the Etna is characterized by mild temperatures, and more rain fall reflecting the influence of the Volcano. The combination of soil, climate and the skill of the winemakers, have made the northern slope of Etna an ideal area for the production of high-quality wines. “Our vineyards and our winery are only a few kilometers from our family home. Our entire family is rooted there. We have the greatest respect for this region, and we believe we have a responsibility to be stewards of Etna and to reflect its distinct character in our wines.” - Giuseppe Tornatore

This is a textbook Etna red from a relatively new, large and important producer. It is a pale and light bodied red that perfectly transmits the red strawberry/pomegranate/cranberry fruit of the nerello mascalese grape and region along with herbals, vague pepper and flinty minerality. It is medium weight, firm and very well balanced with some internal warmth and energy, then a dry, mineral finish. The length is very good to excellent. Chill lightly, serve over the next five years. Tasted May 2025

Were September of 2024 not the most ideal time to experience the sheer beauty of this classically styled and modernized Etna Rosso - Well, May of 2025 is really that. moment. Get at it now, without hesitation, preferably alongside anything that involves Sicilian eggplant in one of it it many local preparations. Last tasted May 2025.
The most understandable and straightforward Etna Rosso there could be, mature and layered, of riches and earth, fruit and soil all in the mix. A volcanic paint by numbers canvas of realism and beauty, easily accessible and generous to a perfectly reasonable degree. Entry point for the DOC and once in, never to look back. Drink 2024-2026. Tasted May and September 2024.

Pours a pale, luminous hue, this Etna-born red offers notes of dried leaf, gentle earth, white pepper, bramble, and notable brininess. A swell of warmth is noted on the palate. Its delicate red fruited character is contrasted by twiggy flavours and marked tannins. Very good length. Tasted May 2025.

About the Winery
Viñátigo
Juan Jesús is a proud native of Tenerife and the fourth generation of growers. During the thirty years that he's overseen Bodegas Viñátigo, he has considerably increased its holdings, planting varieties that he and his team recuperated from near extinction.
Driven by passion and love for his homeland, Juan decided to revive and work to save the native grape varieties that were brought to the Canary Islands by the conquers back in the 15th century and that had survived on the islands for centuries. He is a hero of contemporary Canarian viticulture. The wealth of knowledge that his work has created has helped underpin the significant expansion of wine styles that are now available throughout the archipelago, and his wines have achieved a calibre of class that many doubted the Canaries would ever produce again. (The Epic Wines of the Canary Islands, written by Santo Bains).

A volcanic gem from the sub-tropical Atlantic outpost of Tenerife, this listán negro erupts with flavour and personality. It hints at a touch of carbonic maceration—its juicy, vibrant fruit leaping from the glass. A mere three months in barrique lends a whisper of spice to the naturally derived aromas of white pepper, licorice root, and wild juniper teasing the nose. The palate is plush and lively, with silky tannins, a salty snap, and a refreshing lift that keeps you coming back. Sustainably crafted and ready to pour—ideally just below room temperature. An engaging sip from a singular terroir. Tasted May 2025.

A varietal listán negro with its acidity over tannin and ability to mix fruit with the intangibles created by a relationship with volcanic soils. There are no grapes that scent like listán negro while here staying pure, clean and without idiosyncratic behaviour. Viñátigo travels the experienced and philanthropic road to gift a prime and accessible example that is simply a joy to drink. Use this open to market level red in much the same way you might gamay or frappato but also know you have something of fun, joy and excitement in your glass. Crunchy or "crujiente" as they say, ideal for Korean fried chicken tacos or something more appropriately local like papas arrugadas. Drink 2025-2028. Tasted May 2025.

The latest release from Viñatigo's pre-phylloxera, own-rooted listán negro vines planted on the north side of Tenerife at up 1000m on the slopes of El Teide Volcano is a wonderfully savoury and perfumed wine, with typically wild, lightly desiccated red berry fruit, dried earth, resinous herbs and faded flowers, with a smoky, tea leaf undertow, complex and intriguing. The palate is also typically smooth and medium-bodied (13.5% alcohol declared), with finely sanded tannins and balanced acids, supple and highly drinkable. I'd suggest enjoying over the near term with a gentle chill - it's not a wine that needs time in the cellar. Tasted May 2025.

Listan Negro is the primary red grape of the Canary Islands, growing in volcanic soils at about 500 metres. The nose is fairly generous with cranberry/sour cherry fruit, red rose florals and spices. It is medium weight, juicy and fresh with some drying tannin. You can almost taste the slightly acrid character of the soil on the finish of this wine. The length is very good to excellent.

Gambero Rosso
3 Bicchieri
Grown on the northern slopes of Mount Etna, this lively, mineral-tinged red is brimming with fresh red berry and cherry flavours, with a lightly spiced undertone of rosemary, baking spices and wild herbs. A vivid wine that can age for another 7+ years or be served tonight with chicken parmigiana or prosciutto-and-arugula pizza di Parma

There is a lot of elegance here, with fresh and candied cedro, macis, green apple and floral depth. Zesty tension on the palate with enough texture to provide good balance, turning slightly tighter on the finish. Carricante. Sustainable.

About the Winery
Vinos Baettig
Francisco Baettig and Carlos de Carlos have been friends for more than 20 years and share a passion for high-quality wines that are genuine and connected to the land where they are made.
Their families arrived in Traiguén and Purén from Switzerland in the 19th century, where they worked in agriculture, surrounded by volcanoes, lakes and forests, silos, livestock, wagons, and wheat fields.
Francisco and Carlos' passion for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, together with their love for the land of their ancestors, was the inspiration for making their own wines that pay homage to these beloved terroirs. After studying the soil and climate in Traiguén for several years, they chose a plateau with volcanic soil between the Quino and Traiguén Rivers and planted vines in 2013.

A warmer vintage gives the wine a little more substances but arguably less tension, acidity and minerality than 2022. Still, this is an incisive chardonnay, showing seashell, lemon zest and iodine character. Just a touch of pie crust. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate with fresh acidity and a mineral-driven finish. 26,000 bottles made. Delicious now but can hold.

The 2023 Vino de Viñedo Los Parientes Chardonnay originates from Traiguén, Araucanía. Aged for eight months in French oak barrels, this yellow hued wine reveals aromas of green apple subtly complimented by pineapple and ginger notes with a soft touch of acacia. Dry, creamy and taut on the palate, it offers an oily yet refreshing mouthfeel that lingers with a vibrant acidic edge. A deliciously nuanced and faintly textured Chardonnay, the 2023 closes with an enticing cedar finish.

Lots of flowers and strawberries with hints of sauerkraut, tile, seashells, iodine and herbs. Succulent and firm with direct, pure red-berry fruit. Fresh, dusty tannins give grip at the end. 30,000 bottles made. Around 15% whole clusters. Drink now or hold.

The 2023 Pinot Noir Viñedo Los Parientes originates from Traiguén, Araucanía. Fermented with 15% whole clusters and aged for eight months in oak barrels, it presents a purple hue. Aromas of cherries, pomegranate, dried flowers, and sweet briars intertwine with cedar notes. Dry, lean and taut on the palate and the combination of stem tannins, oak and silky pinot-texture elevates things, creating a faintly plush mouthfeel with a gentle roughness. This is a meticulously crafted Pinot Noir from the deep south of Chile.

Gilvesy Pincészet
Hungarian expat Róbert Gilvesy moved back to his homeland from Canada, and began building the Gilvesy winemaking empire on the former Esterházy estate on Szent György Hill. Thanks to years of hard work, the Hegymagas-based facility now includes a modern building complex and about 13 hectares of vineyards, in addition to being the home of the family. The area is shaped by 6 million years old volcanoes, where indigenous and international varieties grow organically.
Robert’s absolute admiration for nature and the terroir translates into an immense respect for the environment. By farming using organic practices, the soils and the vines stay healthy. In the winery, by letting nature take its course without controlling the processes, and using local resources, such as Hungarian oak barrels, Gilvesy promotes and protects the Balaton region.
