Pietro Caciorgna

The wines from Etna have gained serious plaudits in recent years, as people liken these reds grown on black volcanic soils to Pinot Noir from Burgundy’s revered Côte d’Or. With vines that are 70 to 100 year old planted on their own rootstocks, it makes this a unique proposition in Europe. And Ciaurìa, made by Pietro Caciorgna, a producer now with Sicily interests alongside his Tuscan estate, is a wine that fits the bill.
