Frank Cornelissen Munjebel Etna Rosso 2020

Our Verdict

Frank Cornelissen doesn’t practice organic viticulture, nor biodynamic. Nor does he farm conventionally, because he feels that any of these practices interfere with the natural order of his Mount Etna vineyards. Wow! Instead he spreads his vines, and mixes them with olive trees, fruit trees, cover crops, vegetables, local bush and bees. The Frank Cornelissen wines are as singular as his vision. 

And if you are familiar with these cult Italians you will know that demand always outstrips supply. You know the drill, only one bite of the Cornelissen cherry.

"A rich and fragrant wine of pure Nerello Mascalese from different vineyards, partly from our crus as well as the designated plots: Chiusa Spagnola, Rampante, Monte Colla, Feudo di Mezzo, Piano Daini and Crasà. A classic, traditional pure Nerello Mascalese with smooth tannins and sweetness of ripe fruit. A classic Etna Rosso from the Northern Valley. Organic wine certification."
