Etna Bianco, Barone di Villagrande - 2023

This is a truly perfect expression of Etna Bianco, at a value that is impossible to beat. Barone di Villagrande is the oldest winery in Sicily dating back to 1727. Located on the east side of Etna in Milo, on the lower slopes Mount Etna's slopes at an altitude of 700 metres above sea level. The wine in the past was aged in chestnut barrels, instead of the usual oak. Now, to preserve freshness, stainless steel tanks are used and a little oak aging is added to give a subtle note like almond to the finish of this wine. This wine has beautiful tropical citrus notes such as lemon, lime and grapefruit and balancing herbal note of sage. The pronounced minerality, signature to the volcanic soils of Etna completes this wonderful experience!
