Tasting Notes: A terroir-driven white that blends of 70% Carricante, 20% Catarratto, and 10% Grillo from vines that range from 5-80 years old. As a varietal that thrives on the high altitude, volcanic slopes of Etna, Carricante is one that lends an impressive mineral backbone while the Catarrato gives body as well as citrus and herbal aromas. The Grillo (a cross of Cataratto and Moscato di Alessandria or Zibibbo) contributes its own aromas, those of stone fruit, citrus, and cassis. Giovanni Raiti gives his Etna Bianco eight hours of skin contact before undergoing fermentation and élevage in stainless steel vats for eleven months and then an additional three-four months in bottle before release. This white shows vibrant acidity, finesse, and impressive character
