Description

A “natural amphitheatre” is a terrace with steps or a steep slope on which vineyards are cultivated in hilly or mountainous regions. These terrace formations are reminiscent of the seating arrangement in an amphitheatre, where rows of seats are arranged in ascending tiers around a central arena. When applied to vineyard cultivation, these terraces stand out for their scenic beauty and functionality. As well as looking very evocative, it also offers drainage, sun exposure and ventilation. In the wine region around Mount Etna, the steep slopes and high altitude of the volcano have led to the creation of these “natural amphitheatres”. Gaining international recognition in recent years for the uniqueness of its wines, many of the wineries are small and family-owned, often following traditional winemaking practices that emphasize the production of quality wines. SRC, the small project run by the Parasiliti family, know their 17 hectares of vineyards plant by plant, and, with passion and love, they make fresh, mineral and inspiring wines.

Crasa Etna Bianco is the most luminous and vertical expression of the Crasà district, in the heart of Northern Etna. A white wine produced in very limited quantities from old Carricante vines grown at high altitude, on volcanic soils rich in energy and history. A wine that reflects the light touch of SRC and delivers purity, minerality, and depth on the palate, in an authentically Etnean style.
