Palmento Costanzo Mofete Etna Bianco DOC 2022
70% Carricante and 30% Catarratto from various estate vineyards. Each plot is fermented separately with native yeasts in stainless steel. A selection of the resulting batches is aged briefly on the fine lees for a 4 months. Medium straw yellow colour with a fragrant bouquet rich of citrus fruit and mineral notes, with hints of Mediterranean herbs. It is vibrant, fresh and sapid on the palate.
Etna is a DOC which covers the slopes of Mount Etna, the 3330 meter (10,920ft) active volcano that dominates the Italian island of Sicily. It was the very first DOC on the island, created in August 1968 and followed nine months later by that of Sicily's most famous wine, Marsala.
The most commonly produced form of Etna wine is the standard Etna Rosso, a red made predominantly from the Nerello Mascalese grape variety. Up to 20 percent of Nerello Cappuccio is permitted which is also known here as Nerello Mantellato.
Its Bianco (white) counterpart is composed of at least 60 percent Carricante, backed up by Sicily's most widely planted white grape, Catarratto, and a host of minor additions including Trebbiano and Minnella. Superiore Etna must contain 80 percent Carricante and is only permitted within the commune of Milo. There is also a relatively rare rosato (rosé) form also based on Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Capuccio.
