Past peak. Off balance with extremely high abv. Some interesting secondary notes that were quite faint. #passopisciaro #nerellomascalese #etna #mtetnawine #scicily #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago
I find myself time and again drawn to anything different that I have never tried from Sicily, especially Etna. Here we have an excellent Etna Bianco of superb quality for $25. White and yellow fruits, a tinge of salinity, and loads of minerality and freshness. High altitude, cool climate in style from just north of the equator? Say what!?! #mtetnawine #etna #volcanowine #sicily #tenutadefissina #fessina — 9 years ago

Showing much better than the 2012. Color was vibrant. Great mix of fresh blue and red fruit as well as white pepper and herbs. Palate was restrained and well structured with a hint of sourness. More drying than unctuous. Fine finish. #passopisciaro #etna #mtetnawine #sicily #italy #nerellomascalese #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago
