Etna Bianco 2025 Tornatore

Etna Bianco 2025

A savoury white, polished by volcanic winds.

100% Carricante from Castiglione di Sicilia on Etna's northern slope. Hand-picked and hand-sorted grapes are softly pressed; the cold-clarified must ferments at 15–16°C and rests on fine lees for about three months. Pale straw yellow with green reflections; fresh aromas of green apple, grapefruit, white peach and herbs. Savoury, fresh and strikingly mineral. Serve well chilled with seafood carpaccio or steamed white fish.
