Idda
Sicilia Carricante
Sicily, Italy
Sourced from vines in Biancavilla, on Etna's southwest slope, and in Belpasso, on the southern slope between, aged in a combination of stainless steel and oak barrels, aromas of stone fruits, floral and nutty notes. On the palate flavors of peach, pear and apricot with slight citrus notes, honey, almonds and floral notes, lively acidity. Medium+ finish ending with fruit, nutty and honey character with saline mineral notes.

Great white for appetizers and light bites - paired well with seafood

This is an oddball from the Gaia team and quite $$$. The half empty wine- bottle gained weight and flavor in my fridge door over a full week. Touch bitter, apricot, stone fruits, still very fresh and alive, citrus notes, touch honey 🍯 and some sprinkles of nuttiness. I wonder how this will evolve over the next five to ten years? It certainly has the stuffing to do so - kind of a sleeper wine. Given its evolution in the fridge, (shaken but not stirred à la James Bond).

This was a bonus wine at a tasting - and a very nice surprise. Rich stone fruit with melon and pineapple that was completely dry with good minerality. Definitely worth a try when a richer white fits the bill — or if you’re just drinking without food!

Minerality. While the wind seems to want to evoke citrus the minerality takes over.
