Controcorrente is a small Etna project created by Antonino “Nino” Calì on family land near Linguaglossa. The name translates as “against the current” and reflects Nino’s independent way of working, with each wine approached on its own terms rather than through a fixed recipe.
Production remains small and personal, with the range showing several sides of Etna through sparkling, skin-contact and red wines. The common thread is a direct, energetic style shaped by local grapes and the volcanic landscape.
