Nuzzella

On the northeast flank of Etna, where lava-black soils meet ancient white sedimentary rock, Nicola Oteri created Nuzzella in 2014 with a single ambition: to make honest, site-expressive wine from one of the most electrically charged terroirs on earth.

Nicola Oteri founded Nuzzella in 2014 after falling deeply in love with Etna and its wines. He began by restoring existing vineyards in Contrada Selmo, near the town of Piedimonte Etneo, working with 1.6 hectares from the outset. The first harvest, in 2015, produced just 2,000 bottles of traditional-method sparkling Nerello Mascalese. The estate has grown steadily since then, expanding to 4 hectares and six distinct labels, with annual production now around 15,000 bottles.
