      Detailed Description

      It presents itself with great elegance and charm with precise aromas, imposing but very fine tannins and great length.

        Producer Information

        Azienda Agricola Frank Cornelissen is a Sicilian wine producer in the Etna region. It is widely known for its strict adherence to minimal-intervention winemaking practices. The estate makes wines from local varieties, chiefly Nerello Mascalese, but does not produce under the Etna DOC. Instead it prefers to use the Terre Siciliane IGT designation. Winemaker and founder Frank Cornelissen is a Belgian native. He moved to Sicily in 2000 and established the estate the following year, experimenting with natural winemaking from the beginning. The property covers 24 hectares (59 acres). These range between 600 to 1000 meters (1900-3200ft) above sea level on the slopes of Mount Etna. 13 hectares are planted with free-standing bush vines (known here as alberello); 9 hectares are planted in rows in the modern style. Old vines are planted on their own roots, and new vines are cuttings from thse which again are ungrafted. There are also some olive groves and orchards; fruit trees are planted among the vines to mitigate monoculture and support bees. Cornelissen is certified organic for its farming practices, but the practices of the estate go much further towards minimal intervention and natural production than most organic and biodynamic certifications require. The aim is to avoid all treatments, but copper sulfate and sulfur have been used in a few difficult vintages. Yields are kept down to around 300 to 600 grams (10.5 to 21 oz) per vine.
