Created to mark the 20th anniversary of Tenuta delle Terre Nere, Bellacolonna is a celebratory expression of Nerello Mascalese that captures both the spirit of the estate and the wild beauty of Mount Etna. Sourced from old vines rooted in the volcano’s mineral-rich soils, this special-edition Etna Rosso combines purity, finesse and a striking sense of place. Aromas of red cherry, pomegranate and raspberry mingle with notes of rose petals, herbs and smoke — the signature of high-altitude viticulture on Europe’s most active volcano.

On the palate, the wine is graceful yet structured, with silky tannins and a fine, almost Burgundian texture. Layers of vibrant red fruit are threaded with volcanic spice, graphite and a long, saline finish that speaks unmistakably of Etna’s black sands and ash. Bellacolonna is both a tribute to two decades of pioneering work by Marco de Grazia and a beautifully crafted Etna Rosso in its own right — refined, expressive and perfectly suited to those who love elegance with a sense of adventure.
