A fine example of Sicily winemaking, this Etna DOC reflects generations of local expertise. Its 13% alcohol content supports a rounded, well-integrated style. Crafted from Carricante 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate is fresh and precise, with lively acidity carrying through to the finish. The fruit is sourced from vineyards pre-phylloxera vines that are 100-120 years old, rooted on a sandy soil. Vinification: soft pressing and alcoholic fermentation in steel tanks. The wine is aged about 7 months in steel tanks. A wine capturing Sicily's sun-soaked character and ancient viticultural roots.
Volcanic soils around Mount Etna impart a distinctive mineral character found across many Sicilian wines.
