Description

The Etna Bianco from the Contrada Monte Gorna di Nicosia line is born in vineyards located on the western slope of Etna. It is produced with Carricante and Catarratto grapes, carefully harvested and selected by hand in the second week of October.

After a short cold maceration and static decantation for 48 hours, the must ferments at a controlled temperature for about 15-20 days. The wine then ages in steel on the fine lees and in acacia tonneaux before being bottled and refined for 3-4 months.

This Etna Bianco is characterized by a bright straw yellow color. On the nose it opens with intense sensations of apple, enriched by pleasant mineral and hawthorn notes. On the palate it is fresh and mineral, with a characteristic aniseed aftertaste.

Perfect to accompany shellfish risottos and grilled fish-based dishes, it is ideal in combination with fried fish and vegetables in batter.
