Contadino rosso is the entry red wine of the Cornelissen estate. It comes from mixed vineyards dominated by Nerello Mascalese (85%). Other local varieties include Nerello Capuccio, Allicante Boushet, Minnella and Uva Francese. Contadino Rosso expresses the terroir of Etna, but it is produced in a more traditional way. By blending different vineyards and varieties, wines have a beautiful bouquet that is elegant and pleasant enough. A wine that combines fruitiness, beautiful structure and character.<\/p>\n

Frank Cornelissen<\/h5>\n
After a successful career as a wine broker, Belgian Frank Cornelissen moved in 2000 to one of the world’s most exceptional locations for viticulture and winemaking, terroir-wise. It is the slope of Mount Etna volcano in Sicily. He filled the first bottles with the 2001 vintage. In its first decade, he has united and divided the wine community with his unique wines, but it has certainly left no one indifferent. <\/span><\/div>\n
\n

His wines have always reflected the environment very intensely, especially the soil on which the vines grow: They are on average 60 years old. Some of them pre-date the era of Phylloxera. In our opinion, the 2012 vintage was the turning point, making the leap from wines that were characterful, mineral, very special… to wines that are still all of that, but now truly exceptional. The vintage dictates whether they will be large and more concentrated, or whether their complexity will be more on the elegant side. While Frank also produces a superb white macerated variety, Munjebel bianco, he has focused most of his attention on a variety that is undoubtedly one of the world’s greatest reds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Nerello Mascalese<\/h5>\n
\n

It is a native Nerello mascalese. The harvest usually takes place in the second or third week of October. The wines are usually medium red in colour, with pronounced tannins and acidity. The best examples are characterised by finesse, elegant complexity, the scent of red berries, sometimes oriental spices and even liquorice. The flavours of the younger wines definitely lean more towards the fruity side – wild strawberries, raspberries, blackberries – but there is already a slightly earthy note and a lovely salty minerality which, together with the acids, which are, as said, pronounced but rounded, perfectly balance the relatively high alcohol level. This can exceed 15%. Over the years, the wines acquire noble tertiary aromas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Vineyards and wines<\/h5>\n
\n

On 24 hectares of land, two hectares are olive trees, the rest are vineyards, located between 600 and 900 metres above sea level. Some are extremely old and pre-date the Phylloxera, which means that they are ungrafted. That means growing on their own rootstock (roots) and not on American rootstock. These are vineyards with predominantly sandy soils, where Phylloxera does not have the conditions to survive. On these locations, even with the gradual renewal of the vineyards, Frank plants the young vines with their own roots. It is important to note that on Mount Etna, even in the hot days of August, there is a large temperature difference between day and night, which has a very beneficial effect on ripening. <\/span><\/p>\n

During the first decade of viticulture and winemaking on Mount Etna, Frank produced rather wild wines. In many cases excellent, truly terroir-driven, but not always. Occasionally, things did not go in the desired direction and the wines were unstable, or varied from bottle to bottle, also due to the non-addition of sulphites.<\/p>\n

Today, that is a distant past. Nothing is left to chance. Neither<\/span>\u00a0in the vineyard, nor in the cellar. The northern slope of Mount Etna, is like, say, Barolo in Piedmont or the <\/span>C\u00f4tes-de-Nuits<\/span> in Burgundy. A large number of vineyards situated in very specific locations. They can differ a lot one from the other and are therefore ideal for producing ‘vini di contrada’, which means vinifying and bottling individual vineyards.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Wine made in amphorae, with virtually no intervention. About 75% Nerello Mascalese, 20% other red varieties (Allicante, Minella Nera, Uva Francese, Nerello Capuccio, …) and 5% white (Inzolia, Minella). An incredible experience of terroir and authenticity without added sulphur. Light ruby, slightly opaque. The nose is complex herbal, mineral (volcanic soils), cranberry, raspberry, traces of marzipan. The taste is unique, spicy, with moderate tannins, elegant freshness and minerality, and exceptional acidity. Nice aftertaste. We recommend decanting. A great amphora for a reasonable price!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2651,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[500,508,506,501,499,661,654,531,502,505],"product_tag":[663,516,515,678,665,675,655,513,670],"class_list":["post-3122","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","product_cat-country","product_cat-etna-en","product_cat-frank-cornelissen","product_cat-italy","product_cat-natural-wines","product_cat-nerello-cappuccio-en","product_cat-nerello-mascalese-en","product_cat-red","product_cat-wine-colour","product_cat-winegrower","product_tag-allicante-en","product_tag-etna-en","product_tag-frank-cornelissen-en","product_tag-minella-en","product_tag-minella-nera-en","product_tag-nerello-capuccio-en","product_tag-nerello-mascalese-en","product_tag-sicily","product_tag-uva-francese-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\ncornelissen contadino rosso red<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Contadino rosso is the base red wine of the Cornelissen estate.
