Contrada Rampante Etna Rosso Tenuta Tascante DOC Sicily

The Contrada Rampante is an Etna Rosso that translates volcanic soil and high altitude into a lean, taut red wine profile. It consists of Nerello Mascalese, the lead grape variety of Mount Etna, and tastes dry.

Tenuta Tascante belongs to the Conti Tasca d'Almerita group. The 4.6 hectares of the Rampante vineyard are located at an altitude of 740 meters between Solicchiata and Passopisciaro on the northern flank of Mount Etna. The soils are of volcanic origin, their age ranges from around 4,000 to 15,000 years. Wide terraces and a gradient of 4.7% characterize the site and give the wine its mineral line.

In the glass, red fruits and wild herbs appear, carried by an elegant acidity structure. The body remains rather light to medium, the style is fresh rather than massive. Drink it at about 16 to 18 °C. It goes with pasta with wild boar ragout, grilled tuna, rabbit with herbs, or mature Pecorino.

Find the right wine faster – with our picks

Row above the wines with the “Our picks” button open and three Super Tuscans

You can now find the right wine faster. Above the wines in every category there is one row that brings it all together: Our picks, Occasion, Goes with, Wine style, Filters and Sort by.

Row above the wines with Filters, Our picks, Goes with, Wine style, Bought before and Sort by; the "Our picks" button is open with "Super Tuscan" selected, next to it Tignanello, Le Volte and Le Serre Nuove

  • Our picks. The "Our picks" button comes first. Choose "Great value" to see wines that deliver more than their price suggests. Some of them have been recognised by Falstaff and other critics for exactly that, the others we have picked for you.
  • Super Tuscans. On the Tuscany page, "Our picks" also takes you to the red cult wines that deliberately broke with the old appellation rules: Tignanello, Ornellaia, Sassicaia, Le Volte, Guado al Tasso and many more, from the first step up to large formats.
  • One tap, one choice. Tap "Occasion", "Goes with" or "Wine style" and pick what you are looking for, such as "Aperitif & spritz" or "Fish". The button then shows what is currently selected.
  • Everything at a glance. Whatever you have selected appears right below. Tap the cross to remove it, or "Clear all" to remove everything at once.
  • Always at hand on your phone. The row stays at the top while you scroll, so you can change filters and sorting without scrolling back up.
  • Bought before. When you are logged in, the "Bought before" switch shows which wines in the category you have already bought from us, online or in the shop. Handy when you want to find a favourite again.
