The oenological techniques used enhance the varietal characteristics of the vines used. Its personality, elegance and sensory complexity are closely linked to the particular terroir. The very mineral taste resembles lava and volcanic sands. This wine was bottled for the first time in 1982 and continues to be the most important product for our company

]]> Pinot Noir https://www.qronfla.com/product/pinot-noir/ Mon, 16 Aug 2021 00:18:32 +0000 https://www.qronfla.com/?post_type=product&p=28031 Pinot Noir grapes do not give opulent and large-bodied wines, but have more than any other the ability to "fix" the characteristics of the terroir. However, they require an environment compatible with the precociousness of the harvest and in which the subtle and complex aromatic notes that constitute the main charm of these wines can be preserved.
The choice to plant this vineyard is due to the great love we have for these grapes and for the many ties that exist with nerello mascalese grapes. The experimental works carried out since 1985 under the direction of the Oenologist Giacomo Tachis have confirmed a great vocation of the Etna area for these particular grapes, which only in a few places in the world find favorable conditions.

Since the first harvests we have noticed interesting results and with the 2010 harvest the first bottling was made.
In the production technique we tried to enhance as much as possible the aromatic characteristics of the grapes and the terroir.
Compared to other Pinot Noir wines, the great minerality that blends thinly with soft but decisive tannins and that elegantly enhances the sensations of red fruit and spices is striking. You can also feel the presence of a sunny climate without this penalizing the freshness and fragrance.

]]> Extra Brut Rose https://www.qronfla.com/product/extra-brut-rose/ Mon, 16 Aug 2021 00:17:03 +0000 https://www.qronfla.com/?post_type=product&p=28028 Nerello Mascalese has great potential for the production of sparkling wines in the classical method. A prolonged aging on the lees brings greater aromatic complexity, a great length and a very fine foam. Over the years the acidity is balanced with softness, generating harmony and making the dosage superfluous.

The long aging on the lees creates a very fine perlage, fullness, complexity that integrates into a perfect balance between acidity and softness and for this reason no dosage is carried out.
