Scores

"Clear and bright aromas of sliced pear, melon, apple and honeysuckle. Full-bodied, layered and creamy with density and richness, yet it remains agile. Some cooked lemon and bitter lemon at the end. Honeysuckle and sage, too. From carricante vines that are about 100 years old. Drink or hold."
95 points, James Suckling

"Archineri is a single vineyard on the east side of Etna, near Milo, at 850m. Purchased by Pietradolce in 2011, the vines are around 125 years old. Soft and round, it offers voluptuous stone fruits in a hedonistic style, however it's well balanced by saline acidity and streaks of mineral.”
93 points, James Button, Decanter

ProducerPietradolce

One of the rising stars in our portfolio, since its founding in 2005 Pietradolce has come to own one of the largest collections of pre-phylloxera vines on the active volcano Mt Etna – which are up to 120 years old. This ancient mountain commands the winery’s devotion and respect, the energy and nuance of the volcanic soils producing truly phenomenal wines. Owner Michele Faro and winemaker Giuseppe Parlavecchio focus exclusively on local varieties Nerello Mascalese and Carricante, producing a range of pure, terroir-driven wines roughly structured as Village, Premier Cru, and Grand Cru. While the do offer an elegance and depth reminiscent of great Burgundy, they offer incredible value compared to the Cote d’Or.
