The winery takes the name from the train track of the "Circum Etnea". A little train that passes through the vineyards. Tenuta means "estate", Ferrata "train track". Our logo is the Etna viewed from above with the train track lane.
Tenuta Ferrata is not just a vineyard, it is the celebration of a family that believes in hard work and sacrifice, and that continues to pass down its deepest values, lending high value to its land and to Sicily trough one of the oldest and most meaningful fruits: the grape. The vineyard is a symbol of rebirth and longevity, and this is how the Virlinzi family has given life to an estate that represents the culmination of an adventure lasting over a hundred years. His passion is fuelled by another great force: Etna, a symbol of energy, vitality and unpredictability, the emblem of those Sicilians who turn their gaze towards "La Muntagna" every day. It is this combination of family, environment and technology that brings to life the excellent Etna Doc wines.
Hall Wines The Kathryn Hall Cabernet Sauvignon is made from 96% Cabernet, 4% Merlot.
The 2017 Kathryn Hall is deep, dark ruby in color and elegantly balanced with layered aromas of concentrated blackberry, freshly turned earth, and a hint of warm, spicy oak. The palate is fruit-forward with underlying notes of rich cocoa and leather. Layers of black fruit, nutmeg, cassis and brooding earthy notes are abundant. Supple, seamless tannin abounds, and the wine finishes with an incredible dark fruit feed-back that lasts several minutes.
Review:
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Kathryn Hall is a blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot, brought up mostly in new barrels. It’s a killer bottle of wine offering lots of ripe black fruits intermixed with savory herbs, melted chocolate, and tobacco. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it shows the lush, round, velvety style of the 2019 vintage and is already impossible to resist. It’s going to evolve for 15+ years if well stored.
