Description

Firriato's Quater Vitis Bianco was born in the Pianoro Cuddìa estate, characterized by a clayey soil that produces intense water stress for the plants and, together with the semi-desert climatic conditions, creates the conditions for complex viticulture.

This label contains four of the most characteristic white grape varieties of the Sicily region, perfectly summarizing its essence: Inzolia, Catarratto, then Carricante dell'Etna and Zibibbo. The manually harvested grapes are softly pressed and sent to a controlled temperature fermentation. It ages for 6 months on the fine lees and for a further 3 months in the bottle before being placed on the market.

The color is bright straw yellow with green reflections. Hints of medlar and orange reach the nose, enriched with nuances of lavender, ginger and flint. It is a wine of strength and character, composed in an admirable balance between the complexity of the Catarratto, the aromaticity of the Zibibbo, the elegance of Inzolia and the minerality of the Carricante dell'Etna grown at 700 meters above sea level.

Ideal to be served with fish main courses or seafood dishes.
