Pietradolce Vigna Barbagalli Etna Rosso 2017 is a characterful wine from Mount Etna. Made from Nerello Mascalese grapes from the Vigna Barbagalli vineyard on the volcano's northern slopes, this wine reflects the mineral freshness of the volcanic soil. Pietradolce is a pioneer of the Etna wine movement, combining traditional winemaking with a clear commitment to terroir. The 2017 vintage was characterized by intense sun exposure followed by cooler nights, resulting in aromatic depth and a supple structure.
It displays a ruby red color. The nose reveals red cherries, raspberries, rosemary, and a delicate mineral note reminiscent of lava rock. On the palate, the wine is elegant yet concentrated, with a present but fine tannin structure, lively acidity, and spicy notes of pepper and dried herbs; the finish is long and mineral.
The optimal drinking window is expected to be between 2020 and 2035; however, depending on storage conditions, the wine may already be approachable now. Food pairing recommendation: Grilled lamb or beef fillet, game dishes, sautéed mushrooms with garlic, and pasta with a tomato base and Mediterranean herbs – anything that complements the spicy structure and freshness of the Etna Rosso.

Shipping information
Unless otherwise stated, we ship our wines via UPS. Standard delivery time is approximately 2-3 business days within Germany and approximately 3-5 business days within the EU.
We pack the wines in UPS-licensed shipping boxes according to UPS packaging specifications.
Please note that in extreme temperatures that could affect the quality of the wine, we will only ship it upon your express request. Otherwise, we will store your purchased wines free of charge until safe shipment is possible.
Returns & Revocation
Of course, we accept returns within the scope of legal regulations. Provided the goods are in exactly the same condition as purchased, we will refund the full purchase price, excluding shipping costs, if returned within 14 days of receipt.
You must organize the return shipment yourself and also cover the return shipping costs and adequate shipping insurance.
Where possible, and especially with larger wine cellar purchases, the wine cellars of the previous owners tell us a lot about the storage conditions of the wines. A professionally managed wine cellar usually guarantees perfect storage conditions for the wines. We acquire our wines exclusively from reputable, mostly private wine collectors.
HIDDEN FEATURES
UV-LIGHT TESTING
Many high-quality wines today feature various security features for authentication, such as markings that only become visible under UV light. We check and compare all purchased wines for these features using an extensive database, and if there is even the slightest doubt, we reject the wine.
THE DETAILS MATTER
LABELS & PRINTING
We examine wine labels under a microscope to determine their quality, and we check the printed image for any peculiarities that are typical for a particular winery, wine, or vintage. We draw on a large image database to identify any anomalies.
COLOR MAKES THE DIFFERENCE
THE CONTENT
Last but not least, we also examine the wine's composition. Color, turbidity, sediment, and the bubbles in a champagne reveal a lot about the wine's or champagne's condition and potential drinking pleasure.
