Savory, fruit and texture driven blend of Etna’s Carricante plus three other local grapes. It displays a clear and bright, light straw yellow appearance backed up by attractive high toned aromatics of citrus and white stone fruits.

On the palate, it is oak-free, medium bodied and nicely balanced with an ample supply of juicy acidity and perfumed fruit that gives the Bianco a long, satisfying finish. Overall, this is an elegant and flavorsome sip-and-savor wine that should appeal to just about anyone.

Was delicious. Great for mineral lovers. However, this $56 reserve blend was not noticeably different from the $25 blend. I will get the $25 blend next time.

More cirrus but minerality is next level. Paired with uni spaghetti with caviar.
