The 2018 Etna Bianco Superiore Pietra Marina captivates with a savory blend of crushed rocks, raw almonds and musky dried apricot. It's deeply textural with a saline tinge to its orchard fruits and brisk acidity that maintains energy throughout. The 2018 leaves a lemon and mineral twang through the long, lightly structured finale as hints of liquid stone linger. The PietraMarina is currently wrapped up tight with youthful poise, yet it should blossom beautifully in a few years. (Eric Guido, Vinous, September 2023)

A little break from Tuscany. Single vineyard nerello mascalese from mt etna. Really has it together—juicy raspberry offset by savory game, baked earth, saline and herbal components. — 3 months ago

Great winemaking. Methode champenoise that maintains the true character of the carricante grape. Balanced, with complexity, without being tiring. Less dosage would make it better - yet still definitely brut. — a month ago
