Etna Bianco DOC Superiore Carricante

It was a very good year 🎶

The 2019 Etna Bianco is incredibly floral and pretty, with sweet white flowers and citrus-laced orchard fruits. Soft, ripe and soothing, yet contrasted by bright acids. Notes of pear and apricot taper off to a salty twang toward the close. $22.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, May 2021)

Yummy, right balance of acid and fruit. The volcanic soil definitely adds lightness to it

Funky grassy tea. I like it actually. 90.

Needs some years

Medium weight, little Italian barnyard, balanced. Good stuff.

Supple while funky. Really enjoyable right now. Bright acidity with good backbone.

Early morning sunshine, crisp air and field flower blend

Fine. Imagine Barbera, but with a lot of tannin? Drink it with a sausage pizza or spaghetti and meatballs.
