Etna "Outsider" Box Degustazione [6 bot]

Etna "Outsider" tasting box - 6 bottles

The Etna "Outsider" tasting box is a selection designed for those who wish to explore the less conventional side of Etna and Sicilian wine. This 6-bottle journey brings together reds and whites that move beyond the most classic patterns, highlighting IGT and IGP expressions, distinctive grape varieties, artisanal sensibilities and a freer interpretation of the volcanic territory.

The box includes Vulcanica Rosso IGT 2024 by Nerina Cardile, Lato Sud Rosso Grenache 2021 by Grottafumata, Q1000 Tartaraci Rosso XXII 2022 by Vino di Anna, Acquatinta IGP Terre Siciliane 2023 by Giuseppe Lazzaro, Encore, Ancora Bianco IGT 2024 by Nerina Cardile and Lato Sud Bianco Carricante 2022 by Grottafumata. A dynamic and intriguing composition, ideal for discovering wines with a personal character, far from the most predictable tasting experience.

The freer and more unconventional face of Etna

This selection tells the story of a less canonical Sicily, where wine does not simply follow the best-known routes of the appellations, but moves through grape varieties, altitudes, lava soils and production choices capable of expressing energy, authenticity and immediacy. The result is a box that brings together spicy, juicy and terroir-driven reds with savoury, bright and mineral whites.

The presence of labels such as Lato Sud Rosso Grenache 2021, Q1000 Tartaraci Rosso XXII 2022 and Acquatinta IGP Terre Siciliane 2023 broadens the journey beyond the most classic Etna profile, while Encore, Ancora Bianco IGT 2024 and Lato Sud Bianco Carricante 2022 bring tension, freshness and verticality back to the centre. This is a box made for a curious, less didactic and more surprising tasting experience.

Food pairings and serving

The wines in this box are suited to a broad Mediterranean table: savoury appetisers, grilled vegetables, fresh and medium-aged cheeses, pasta with light sauces, grilled fish, white meats, pork, lamb and balanced spicy dishes. The variety of the selection makes it possible to build a complete tasting, from the aperitif to more structured courses.

We recommend serving the white wines at 10-12°C and the red wines at 15-17°C, considering a slight chill for the lighter and more fragrant reds. This box is ideal for enthusiasts looking for less obvious Sicilian wines, for comparative tastings or as a gift for those who enjoy discovering producers and interpretations beyond the most familiar routes.
