"A blend of Carricante from various contradas in Castiglione di Sicilia on Etna's northern side, this unoaked bianco is bright and cheerful, full of white peach, white flowers, apricot skin, cream, pink grapefruit and hay. Sapid and stony, its long, floral finish is delightful."

"The 2022 Etna Bianco lifts from the glass with a savory blend of dried flowers, stone dust and freshly sliced nectarine. Lifted in style, it displays ripe pit fruits and a sensation of liquid stone guided by fresh acidity. The 2022 finishes crisp and long, with a tart citrus concentration that puckers the cheeks and keeps the taster looking back to the glass for more."
