Tornatore Etna Bianco 2022
Sicily, Italy (75 cL)
Notes of lemon, flowers and candied fruit mingle with Etna's distinctive smoky minerality.
Tornatore's Etna Bianco is a typical Sicilian dry white with an explosive and impressive character. Straw-yellow in color, fruity on the nose, intensely mineral on the palate, it is made from Carricante grapes. Scents of green apple and grapefruit are mingled with atypical notes of aromatic herbs and flint, which are easily found on the palate with an invigorating lemony finish.
The Tornatore family has been working the vineyards and terroir of Castiglione di Sicilia, on the northern slopes of the Etna volcano, since the 1930s. Today, the family owns 60 hectares, situated between 550 and 700m above sea level, making it one of the largest DOC Etna estates. The winery was built with low environmental impact and features state-of-the-art equipment. Renewable energy sources are used for its operation. The combination of soil, climate and the wisdom of the winemakers has made Etna's northern slopes ideal for the production of top-quality wines that are above all special and unique.
