Graci Etna Bianco 2017
The Graci Etna Bianco is sourced from a vineyard of 2.5 ha in Contrada Arcurìa, a hamlet of Passopisciaro, north of Mount Etna and at 600 meters above sea level. A blend of Carricante and Catarratto grapes, this Etna Bianco is a beautiful delicate straw yellow in colour. On the nose there are elegant fruity hints of yellow peach and pineapple, accompanied by the typical and pleasant minerality. The palate is fresh and expresses a beautiful persistence when tasted.
