Pietradolce is a story of historical and family traditions, with its roots on the northern slopes of Mount Etna in Solicchiata, a hamlet a few kilometres from Castiglione di Sicilia. The estate is a unique expression of passion and visceral attachment to the land, the crucial values of their winery philosophy. Environmental sustainability, organic cultivation and good practices based on Etna’s traditions are what underlies their winemaking.
750 mlPietradolce Etna Bianco is produced from Carricante grapes, obtained from vineyards grown on sandy-loam soils with abundant volcanic rock, on the northern slopes of Etna, at a height ranging from 700 to 800 meters above sea level. The manual harvest takes place between the end of September and the beginning of October. The gentle pressing, followed by aging for 4-6 months in steel, produces a wine with a strong, fresh and lively character. The spicy nose is set off by tar and stones, with spices and nuts layered over tart citrus fruits like bergamot and pithy lemon. A juicy lemon meringue note lingers on the palate and is complemented by a light peppery finish. Coherent and substantial, with lively acidity.
