Tenuta Tascante

Tenuta Tascante works the volcanic slopes of Etna in Sicily, where Nerello Mascalese thrives in the region's distinctive terroir. The winery's portfolio centers on this native variety, which expresses itself across distinct vineyard sites. Contrada Sciaranuova VV Etna Rosso and Contrada Pianodario Etna Rosso represent the winery's approach to single-vineyard expression, each drawing character from its specific microclimate and soil. The broader Nerello Mascalese offering rounds out the range. Etna's high altitude and mineral-rich volcanic substrate give Nerello Mascalese its signature structure and elegance—wines marked by bright acidity and fine tannins rather than weight. Decanter, Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Spectator have all assessed the winery's releases, with the top bottlings earning scores in the mid-90s.
