Pietradolce Etna Bianco is produced only from Carricante grapes, obtained from vineyards grown on sandy-loam soils with abundant volcanic rock, on the northern slopes of Etna, at a height ranging from 700 to 800 meters above sea level. The manual harvest takes place between the end of September and the beginning of October. The gentle pressing, followed by aging for 4-6 months in steel, produces a wine with a strong, fresh and lively timbre.Very typical for the region’s whites with pears, green apples, sea salt, brine and seaweed. Some flowers, such as honeysuckle. It’s medium-bodied with a creamy texture and fresh finish. Bitter lemon at the end.

Sweet white flowers, chamomile and spice give way to crushed apples as the 2024 Etna Bianco Pietradolce wafts up from the glass. Pleasantly ripe in style, it splashes across the palate with crisp orchard fruits and minty herbal tones. This finishes with a sense of refinement as a tactile mineral tinge lingers.
