"Displaying a deep golden hue, the 2019 Etna Bianco Sant’Andrea opens with a honeyed sweetness as wildflowers and chamomile accentuate hints of young peach.

This tapers off with a saline concentration on the long finish." 91, Eric Guido, Vinous

Sourced from 130-150 year old vines in Contrada Caselle, a historical site on the Eastern slope of Mt. Etna at 850 metres: Carricante is the protagonist here, and it impresses with its laser-like focus, acid backbone, and rich texture.  Armit Wines
