A former classical pianist, Beppe now farms around 18 hectares of organically tended vines between 650 and 780 metres elevation, around the town of Passopisciaro. The vineyards are planted on ancient lava flows known as 'sciare', many to ungrafted, head-trained vines well over a century old, and surrounded by hazelnut and olive groves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSan Lorenzo is one of Etna's most highly regarded contrade, with old-vine plantings dating to around 1940. This single-contrada Etna Rosso, made from predominantly Nerello Mascalese with a small portion of Nerello Cappuccio, is the more structured and age-worthy of the estate's reds. Aromas of dark cherry, wild herbs, tobacco and ash sit over a deep, fine-grained palate with savoury length and a long volcanic finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFarming is organic, with traditional manual practices in the vineyard. Grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with indigenous yeasts in the restored cellar beneath the Russo home, with ageing in a mix of stainless steel, concrete and large used oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVintages may vary.
