Calcagno

Etna Rosso from Sicily's volcanic heart, rated by major critics.

Calcagno produces wines from Terre Siciliane in Southern Italy, drawing on the volcanic terroir of Mount Etna. The winery's portfolio centers on Etna Rosso, a regional expression built from Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio—indigenous varieties that thrive in the island's mineral-rich soils. Feudo di Mezzo Etna Rosso and Calderara Etna Rosso stand as flagship releases, both rated 92.7 by prestige critics including Decanter, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Wine Enthusiast. Arcuria Etna Rosso, blending the same Nerello varieties, rounds the core range at 91.1. These wines reflect the austere, high-acid character typical of Etna's elevation and volcanic geology—a profile that rewards cellaring and food pairing over immediate consumption.
