This is a wine my wife bought me when she was not my wife.

Just a mere girlfriend. Newly minted.

It’s survived four moves and five homes.

20 seasons.

The color has definitely warmed up a bit. Flourishes of golden swirls.

Smells more like a Chardonnay than a caricante.

Notes of honey and hazelnut. Still a line of minerality throughout. Citrus and orange peel. But the fruits have lightened and turned into something more nuanced and nutty.

Beautiful and worth sitting on for 7 years and 10 years from the harvest.

Final Etna Biaco of our Sicily trip. DOC Superiore lives up to its domain certification. Dry with minimality but richer flavors than others we tasted here. Maybe barrel aged. — 3 months ago

100 % Carricante grapes from Mount Etna grown on sandy loam soils with volcanic rocks between 700 to 900 meters altitude.
All manual harvesting.
Aged 4-6 months in stainless steel.
Golden green colour with citrus, herbs, and a flinty stoney freshness on the nose.
Lemon citrus oils, sage, chamomile, white flowers and fennel.
Lively acidity and minerality on the finish that lasts for minutes.

Another blind serving. 5 year old Chablis? WRONG, again! Aromas of lime, oranges, sea salt and flower. In the mouth I felt as if I was blindsided in the ocean by a wave and knocked underwater and swallowed a mouthful of water.. The saltines was joined with palate cleansing acid, and notes of kiwi, citrus and dried flowers. Silky well balanced body. — 8 months ago

Cult winery from Sicily. But the guy is Belgian. Orange wine I think - So flavorful, apples, stone-fruit, honey and most of all a ton of JASMINE. I love it. But not everyone’s cup of tea. — 2 years ago
