Monte Gorna Etna Bianco DOC 2022 - Nicosia x 6

Why the winemaker recommends Nicosia Monte Gorna Etna Bianco

It is a white Etna of beautiful elegance, certainly different: all minerals, with few fruits, it is still worth making. Already yellow, perhaps Meyer-lemon and light pear on the nose, before the strong minerality slaps the palate. Not the limestone of Chablis, rather the igneity of Etna. I smell cashews; lots of nice acidity. It would be better with a more harmonious tail, but it is still young. "Savory." Monte Gorna Etna Bianco could certainly be "the stuff of connoisseurs" in a couple of years. It is a truly very interesting wine.
