Description

The Etna Bianco Contrada Monte Gorna of Nicosia was born in vineyards located in the heart of the Etna DOC.

It is produced with Carricante and Catarratto grapes, carefully picked by hand in the second week of October. After a short cold maceration, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature for about 15-20 days. Subsequently the wine is always aged in steel and at least 3 months in the bottle, before being placed on the market.

It is characterized by an intense straw yellow color. The nase opens with hints of yellow fruits, enriched by an enveloping mineral aroma, fine and intense. In the mouth it is elegant and fresh, pleasantly sapid and persistent.

erfetto to accompany risotto and vegetable dishes, it is ideal in combination with fish dishes and white meats.
