Crasà - SRC
Crasà - SRC operates in Etna, Sicily's volcanic wine region, where mineral-rich soils and altitude shape distinctive expressions of indigenous and Mediterranean varieties. The winery's portfolio centers on Nerello Mascalese, the region's signature red grape, which appears in both single-varietal and blended form. Barbabecchi, a pure Nerello Mascalese, demonstrates the variety's capacity for structure and complexity at high elevation. Pirao, crafted from Carricante, captures the aromatic and textural qualities of Etna's white wines—crisp, mineral-driven, and food-focused. Rivaggi blends Grenache with Nerello Mascalese, marrying southern Italian tradition with the volcanic character of the slopes. Wine Advocate and Decanter have rated these wines, reflecting their technical precision and regional authenticity. The winery's work reflects Etna's emergence as a source of serious, terroir-driven wines.
