From the owner: "My wine represents the culmination of an entire year’s work in the vineyards- day in, day out – up to the moment of harvest and vinification, and then also of its years of maturation and evolution. This is a process into which, silently and with humbleness and dedication, I give my all, constantly seeking new emotions and experiences: those that a man needs in order to keep giving himself new goals. That is what wine gives you: a new objective to reach every year, and ever since I began to become interested in it and then to produce it, I have understood that it was above all this that I needed. Each vintage tells the story of the weather conditions and of the work carried out in the vineyards, but it also – and especially – speaks about me, because I transfer into every bottle my personality, my character and my willpower. That is why I decided to put my name on them. The decision to create vineyards and a winery on Etna comes at a particular time in my life, in which much has altered at a personal level: a sort of milestone that marks a significant change. Producing high-quality wines in a zone that is very “trendy”, but also extremely competitive, represents a major challenge for me, and one that I intend to win."
750 mlThe head trained vines are exposed to the north, at an altitude of about 600 meters above sea level which favors the optimal evolution of the aromatic profile, while the soils have a heterogeneous composition, being characterized by stony alluvial soils in the lower part and sandy, rich of lava blocks and volcaniclastic deposits in the upper part. Here we cultivate the Carricante which, vinified alone, becomes their Etna Bianco.
It shows a straw yellow color with light golden reflections. To the nose it expresses delicate and elegant aromas characterized by citrus notes, green apple and white pulp summer fruit to finish on floral tones reminiscent of acacia and Mediterranean aromatic herbs. Balanced and very fresh wine, to the palate it boasts a marked volcanic aftertaste.
