SANTORINI
A TRIBUTE TO THE LARGEST VOLCANIC EXPLOSION
ON EUROPEAN RECORD
THE VOLCA NO
S ANTORINI IS WHAT IS LEFT AFTER THE SECOND BIGGEST EXPLOSION ON HUMAN RECORD RE-SHAPED,
WHAT WAS ONCE A ROUND ISLAND. THE EXPLOSION COVERED A LARGE PORTION OF GREECE IN ASH AND IS BELIEVED TO HAVE CAUSED A
TSUNAMI THAT WIPED OUT THE THE INHABITANTS OF CRETE AT THE TIME.
THE TE RROIR
THE AREA IS EXTREMELY LOW IN RAINFALL AND GRAPES ARE PLANTED IN BASKET SHAPES ON THE GROUND.
THIS HELPS FOR IRRIGATION PURPOSES, TO PROTEC T FROM WIND AND GIVE A LIT TLE SHADE.
THE SOIL IS VERY POOR, SO THE VINES STRUGGLE, AND THAT ’S A GOOD THING.
THE SOIL IS COMPOSED OF VOLCANIC ASH, VOLCANIC ROCK, WITH CALCEROUS SUBSOILS.
THE GR A PE S
THE DOMINANT VARIETAL FOR WHITE IS ASSYRTIKO. THE WINE CAN SHOW A SALINE QUALIT Y AND
TRADITIONALLY SEES A BIT OF OAK. THE WINES HAVE PROLIFIC ACIDIT Y AND VARRYING EXPRESSIONS.
THE DOMINANT VARIETAL FOR RED IS MAVROTRAGANO, MEANING “BLACK-CRUNCH.”
THIS GRAPE WAS ALMOST EXTINC T AT ONE POINT AND IS VERY STRUC TURED WITH HIGH ACID AND TANNIN.
LIGHTLY FLORAL WITH RIPE FRUIT ON THE NOSE AND A SLIGHT SMOKINESS AT TIMES .

MOUNT ETNA
A TRIBUTE TO EUROPE’S MOST ROCKIN’ VOLCANO
THE VOLCA NO
MT ETNA IS THE TALLEST AC TIVE VOLCANO ON THE EUROPEAN CONTINENT AT 3,329 METERS. THE NEXT TALLEST IN ITALY IS MT VESUVIUS IN
CAMPANIA, WHICH IS LESS THAN HALF AS TALL. MAJOR 20TH CENTURY ERUPTIONS HAVE OCCURED IN 1928, 1949, 1971, 1981, 1983,
1991-1993, AND 2015.
THE TE RROIR
THE SLOPE OF THE VOLCANO IS ABOUT 45 DEGREES AND IS COMPOSED OF FERTILE ROCKY SOIL AND BLACK GRAVEL. THE WELL DRAINED SOIL
THAT ’S POOR IN NUTRIENTS IS GREAT FOR THE VINES OF ETNA. UNLIKE THE REST OF SICILY, BELIEVED TO HAVE A MEDDITARANEAN CLIMATE,
ETNA IS A SERIES OF MICROCLIMATES DEPENDING ON WHERE THE VINEYARDS ARE IN RELATION TO THE PEAK OF THE VOLCANO .
THE GR A PE S
THE DOMINANT VARIETAL FOR WHITE WINE IS CARRICANTE, WHICH HAS BEEN CULTIVATED IN SICILY FOR OVER 100 YEARS. THIS IS A HIGH ACID
GRAPE CAPABLE OF AGE THAT CAN SHOW GLAZED TREE FRUIT, BEES WAX AND EXTREME MINERALIT Y. THE DOMINANT VARIETAL FOR RED IS
NERELLO MASCALESE. IT ’S VERY STRUC TURED WITH CONSISTANTLY FIRM TANNIN AND HIGH ACIDIT Y. THOUGHT TO BE NAMED AFTER
THE MASCALI AREA IN CATANIA.

MARSALA
ENGLISH TRADER JOHN WOODHOUSE IS CREDITED WITH BEING THE FIRST PERSON TO FORTIFY THE
STILL WINES OF MARSALA. HE LOVED IT SO MUCH THAT HE RETURNED TO SICILY 1796 TO PRODUCE THE WINE COMMERCIALLY TO SHIP TO
ENGLAND. MARSALA STARTED OFF SIMILAR TO PORT AND MADEIRA IN THE SENSE THAT IS WAS FORTIFIED WITH BRANDY IN ORDER TO
PRESERVE IT DURING ROUGH SEA VOYAGES.
MARSALA’S REPUTATION HIT BOT TOM IN THE EARLY 20TH CENTURY WHEN IT WAS DEEMED
A COOKING WINE. HOWEVER, THAT HAS CHANGED DRAMATICALLY THANKS IN LARGE PART TO MARCO DI BARTOLI, WHO LEAD THE CHARGE TO
MAKE FINE WINES FROM THE MARSALA REGION. CONSEQUENTLY, MARCO DE BARTOLI HAS BEEN DEEMED BY MANY TO MAKE THE FINEST
EXAMPLE IN THE WORLD. THE MARSALA SELEC TION AT
IRON GATE PAYS TRIBUTE TO MARCO DE BARTOLI’S EXPRESSIONS OF THIS UNDERAPPRECIATED ST YLE.
