Description
The Etna Bianco from Pietradolce is made with Carricante grapes grown 800 metres above sea level on teh volcanic slopes of Mount Etna. It is an appealing soft straw yellow colour with lovely aromatics lifting the distinct racy minerality. This is a terrific wine to try if you like Chablis.
Established in 2005, Pietradolce stretches over 11 hectares of high-altitude vineyards on Etna. At the heart of the winery is an unashamed passion for their land and the utmost respect for the indigenous grape varieties nerello mascalese, nerello cappuccio and carricante. Etna’s volcanic soils and some old, pre-phylloxera vines give birth to some of the most vibrant wines in Sicily. Pietradolce’s range is crafted with a real sense of terroir, incredible purity, concentration and longevity.
