The Story Behind Sciaranuova

Unveiling the Mysteries of Contrada Sciaranuova

Nestled amidst the awe-inspiring beauty of the Etna DOC appellation, Contrada Sciaranuova holds a significant place in the heart of Tenuta Tascante. This captivating region, encompassing an area of 14.40 hectares, is a tapestry of natural wonders and breathtaking landscapes. Within this pristine domain, 4.9 hectares are dedicated to vineyards, lovingly nurtured amidst terraces adorned with dry stone walls. In addition, over 7 hectares of lush chestnut groves flourish, adding to the picturesque charm of this extraordinary land.

Contrada Sciaranuova, with its gentle slopes ranging from South-West to North-East, showcases a captivating degrading morphology. At an average elevation of 730 meters above sea level, this elevated haven provides an idyllic environment for the cultivation of exceptional grapes. The soil itself unveils a secret that has been woven through millennia, with volcanic formations dating back 40,000 to 4,000 years, ensuring a distinct character and complexity to the wines born in this remarkable terroir.

A Symphony of Nerello Mascalese Grapes

Unearthing the Essence of Etna DOC Appellation

The essence of Tenuta Tascante Contrada Sciaranuova 2017 lies in the cherished Nerello Mascalese grapes. With utmost care and devotion, these grapes are hand-picked from the slopes of Mount Etna, the volcanic giant that looms majestically over the Sicilian landscape. The Etna DOC appellation, renowned for its volcanic soils, serves as the birthplace of this remarkable vintage.

The vineyards of Contrada Sciaranuova, located on the northern slopes of the Etna volcano, in Randazzo, Catania, embody the true spirit of this terroir. The vines, planted in 2008, bask in the nurturing embrace of an elevation that reaches the sky. Trained meticulously using the espalier system, these precious vines thrive under the watchful gaze of passionate winemakers.

Crafted with Care and Expertise

A Journey from Vineyard to Cellar

As the grapes reach their peak, the moment arrives to capture the essence of their journey. The harvest period, carefully selected, takes place on the 29th of October, a time when the grapes offer their fullest potential. Transporting the grapes from vineyard to cellar with precision and speed, Tenuta Tascante ensures that their innate quality remains intact.

Fermentation, a crucial step in the winemaking process, occurs at controlled temperatures of 25°C to 30°C. This allows for the extraction of vibrant flavors and delicate aromas that embody the unique character of Tenuta Tascante Contrada Sciaranuova 2017. The fermentation process lasts for eight days, meticulously monitored to ensure optimal development.

Fully embracing tradition, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation, further enhancing its depth and complexity. To mature and evolve, this remarkable vintage spends twelve months aging in 25hl oak Slavonian barrels and 300 lt French oak barrels. These barrels gently shape the wine, lending it nuanced nuances of flavor and a harmonious balance.

About brand
tenuta-tascante logo

Our history and that of the “Muntagna” came together in 2007, when the Tascante project was born:Tasca and Etna. First and foremost it represents the exact synthesis of our idea of a vineyard on the highest volcano in Europe, Mount Etna. A force of nature in its primordial state.

Today, with great pride I present to you the newborns: the contrada wines (wines of the district). Our research project to study this territory began in 2004 with the first experimental vinifications. The intense body of work then assumed physical form with the purchase of the first vineyards in 2007 in Contrada Sciaranuova and Pianodario, and then in Contrada Rampante, in 2015.

But truly knowing the character of a land, understanding its nuances, identifying its strengths and other more problematic aspects, is never easy or immediate. Sure, you can get an idea right away, but you need time to really understand the details. And details make all the difference. Nerello Mascalese grapes

and the volcanic soils of Mt. Etna interact magically, expressing the strength of the territory in a distinctive and unmistakable way.

On Mt. Etna, plants grow to maturity with no serious health problems even in the wettest and rainiest years, but we shouldn’t for a minute believe that good results can be achieved without work: agriculture here is far from simple. Steep slopes, terraces that climb the sides of the volcano and a slow and late ripening period make our work in the vineyard very challenging.

That said, finally, after a decade of research and experimentation, we are ready!

In our Contradas, the plants are cared for daily with competence and passion. The grapes are harvested with almost maniacal attention: we may even carry out as many as three harvests in a single vineyard.

So, 15 years after the initial project was born and after 12 years of caring for our vineyards, I am very satisfied and proud of the journey we have made.
