カリカンテ、グリッロ、インソリアなどシチリアの地葡萄を色々アッサンブラージュ。
5〜7日間程度のマセラシオンに栗の大樽熟成ということで、しっかりオレンジなのか、重めなのか予想しにくいテクニカルだが、タンニンも軽やかで、樽香などもあまり感じずに、かなり軽やかなオレンジで、ザクザク系の白としても使える感じ。
軽やかながら、旨味とミネラル感であるので、物足らなくない。 — 8 months ago
@Delectable this is Chardonnay. Anjou pear and Meyer lemon peel, mineral, bright acid, laser-focused ⚡️ — 2 years ago
Initially tasted like Chardonnay then evolved with an hour of air and warming. Still rich and big fruit initially but the a waxy and acidic finish. It’s very unique and I like it. Not a crowd pleaser but one to contemplate. — 3 months ago
This is a great cab — pretty classic Napa, with bright fruit (not Paso Robles level, though). A little less cola than some Napa cabs; this has some Bevan notes to it. Fine tannins, less tannic than Di Costanzo as a comparison. The ‘19 is currently $150 but I believe I paid a bit less. — 2 years ago
Perhaps the best [young] white wine I’ve ever tasted. Carricante is unique and delicious. — 4 months ago

Very rounded Etna white but still lava rock & white flowers, dry white peach. Perhaps less Etna typical for whites I’m used to from there- ie, pin prick acidity etc — 17 days ago
