Profile & Story

The Caciorgna family relocated from Marche to Casole d'Elsa in Tuscany in 1953, building an agricultural estate there before Pietro extended the family's winemaking to Mount Etna in 2006. Ciauria, produced since 2009, is their entry-level Etna Rosso: 100% Nerello Mascalese from volcanic vineyards around 750 meters, fermented in steel with six months in French barriques.

Tasting Notes

Dried spice and tangerine mingle with ginger and underripe berries, giving this red a herbal, savory edge.

Pairing Recommendation

The producer notes it suits earthy, seasonal dishes typical of Etna, and pairs well with some fish dishes too.
