Etna's history is dotted with historic eruptions that have shaped its form. The legendary one in 1614, which lasted 10 years, was the longest of all time, stopping right at the edge of the Sciaranuova vineyards, cultivated according to sustainability and organic criteria. A highly evocative name for our Etna Cru, from this vintage, 100% Carricante. Black soils at high altitude give it a fresh, savory and mineral style.

Tasting notes:

Very pale golden color; on the nose, the volcano manifests itself with aromas of white and yellow flowers (wild pear, elderflower and thorny broom); notes of sulla honey, beeswax, chestnut flowers; a scent of memory that is wheat or rather the places where it was stored. If minerality had a scent, it would be that of Sciaranuova white wines. On the palate, the wine shows its authority and altitude; with a distinct and linear acidity. Flavors of green apple, orange wood, freshly harvested wheat.
