This shows how powerful the dry whites from the carricante grape can get, while still retaining freshness and mineral bite. Very focused with tons of candied citrus, angelica and pine nuts at the long, driving finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

The 2019 Etna Bianco de Aetna lifts up with a smoky display of musky dried apricots and hints of sour citrus. It’s soft-textured with a noticeable inner sweetness, as green apple gives way to salty minerals and, finally, a hint of almond. Energy remains high throughout the long finale as this tapers off toward the tropical spectrum, yet leaves the palate completely refreshed.
