Munjebel Rosso VA is made from 100% Nerello Mascalese grapes coming from a blend of the 3 vineyards located precisely in the highest points owned by Frank Cornelissen (Vigne Alte): Pettinociarelle, Monte Dolce and Tartaraci. It beautifully expresses the value and precision of the old vine: the Nerello Mascalese grown here has an average age of almost 100 years and the plants are all ungrafted. The unique position of the high terraces of the northern valley of Etna gives the wine a rare elegance thanks to the climatic characteristics and above all to the thermal excursions.
Frank Cornelissen
The company is located in Solicchiata, on the north slopes of the Etna volcano. The philosophy of cultivation is based on the principle that a man is incapable of understanding Nature in its entirety, its complexity and its interactions. They prefer to follow the directions given by Mother Nature rather than deciding what to do and to not do. As a consequence, this choice has led to the avoidance of ground movement, the abandonment of any raw material treatment (chemical, traditional, biological or bio-dynamic) added to the processed product.
The cultivated area of their farm is about 12ha of which 10 vineyards with trees and the remnants of olive trees, traditional fruits, almonds and garden. The annual production is about 20,000 bottles of wine and 600 bottles of olive oil. The products are the result of our hands and only exist with their raw material, without the addition of any other "concealer". Our wines and olive oils with the utmost territorial expression and depth, bear the name Magma®. This selected wine and oil, of singular contrada and vintages, comes from exceptional terrain and geology, between 650 and 1.010 meters of altitude.
