Etnella
Etnella is a small-scale, natural winery based on Mount Etna in Sicily. Run soley by Davide Bentivegna.
Davide operates a multitude of different plots around the volcano at differing altitudes, up to 780m above sea level.
His red wines (especially Kaos Rosso 2020) are beautiful expressions of Nerello Mascalese, and personally we prefer these red wines to more famous big name producers in the region. His white wine, Kaos 5.0 is a brilliant Etna Bianco - fresh, minerally and vibrant.

A beautiful stay on Etna
We actually stayed at the Etnella agritourismo for a month in winter 2018, before we had set up MORE Natural Wine. There is a small vineyard by the house, as Davide has plots all over so this is not his main place of work. Molten lava was everywhere, sunrises were beautiful and the tranquility of Etna was surreal.
A lighter expression of Etna Wines
Etnella wines are serious, yet they can are also be playful wines to enjoy too. For example, Attia Bianco is a blend of Chasselas Ibrido, Carricante ,Trebbiano, Moscato, Grecanico.
We personally this his Kaos Rosso 2020, which blends Nerello Mascalese with a 15% splash of Nerello Capuccio to he the masterpiece of this range.
Kaos Rosso 2020 features notes of violets, bramble fruit and hints of leather alongside that volcanic minerality shining through. A lighter take on an Etna red, yet still with tingly tannins making it ideal for hearty dishes.
