Torre Mora “Scalunera” Etna Rosso - Etna, Sicily
Elegant, volcanic, and beautifully expressive, Scalunera is Torre Mora’s flagship Etna Rosso - crafted from high-altitude vineyards on the northern slopes of Mount Etna. This is a refined, Burgundian-leaning red with unmistakable Sicilian character, shaped by mineral-rich black soils and cool mountain breezes.
The nose is fragrant and lifted, offering red cherry, wild strawberry, and pomegranate layered with hints of rose petals, blood orange, and smoky volcanic spice. On the palate, Scalunera is graceful and precise: medium-bodied with fine, silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, mineral-driven finish. It’s a wine that balances delicacy with depth, showing Etna’s signature purity and tension.
