2018 Benanti 'Pietra Marina' Etna Bianco Superiore Sicily

Winemaker Notes: From day one Giuseppe Benanti has nurtured the ambition to demonstrate the enormous potential of the Carricante di Milo. This wine, whose name recalls the volcanic landscape, the flint, the minerality and finally the sapidity of the sea breeze, is now considered one of the most typical, elegant and long-lived whites on the Italian wine scene.

At sight it is straw yellow with bright green reflections. Intense on the nose, rich, broad, complex, fruity with hints of orange blossom and ripe apple. On the palate it is dry and mineral, with a marked acidity, pleasant sapidity and a remarkable aromatic persistence with an aniseed and almond aftertaste.
