Donnafugata Sul Vulcano Etna Bianco, 100% Carricante
Vintage: | 2021 |
---|---|
Description: | An elegantly modern take on the firm, vibrant, mineral Carricantes of Mt. Etna! "Straw yellow in color with golden reflections, it displays an elegant bouquet, with mineral notes of struck flint, citrusy aromas of mandarin and developing delicate hints of honey and hay from its lengthy refinement [in large vessels as well as seasoned French oak barrels for 10 months, followed by extra time in bottle]. On the palate it's enveloping, fresh and savory, characterized by a marked minerality and persistence ; a wine that displays great finesse and complexity. A volcano-goddess stands out on the label of Donnafugata's "Sul Vulcano" Etna White. Its intense colors, reds, yellows, iridescent blacks, are those of the highest active volcano in Europe. An ancient, powerful and feminine divinity: "the Mountain" as Etna is called by the locals. "Sul Vulcano" is a declaration of love: a pure and lively wine, with a distinct mineral taste, a wine that allows you to breathe in the energy of this unique place lying in the center of the Mediterranean.Perfect with crustaceans, vegetarian first courses and porcini mushrooms." - Winery Notes |
