2019 Frank Cornelissen Munjebel 'VA' Rosso

Place: Mt. Etna - Sicily, Italy

Variety: Nerello Mascalese

Farming: Organic

'Our farming philosophy is based on our acceptance of the fact that man will never be able to understand nature’s full complexity and interactions. We therefore choose to concentrate on observing and learning the movements of Mother Earth in her various energetic and cosmic passages and prefer to follow her indications as to what to do, instead of deciding ourselves. Consequently this has taken us to avoiding all possible interventions on the land we cultivate, including any treatments, whether chemical, organic, or biodynamic, as these are all a mere reflection of the inability of man to accept nature as she is and will be.' - Frank Cornelissen 

The 2019 Vigne Alte is incredibly pretty with blossoms in the glass with a vivid mix of crushed cherries, complemented by fresh mint leaf and hints of camphor. Pure and finessed this is from Frank’s highest planted vines.
