Firriato, Etna Bianco DOC (Sicily, Italy) 2016

Nov 2, 2017

By Rich Cook

 A nice, rich yet crisp white that features lively acidity that carries lemon, nectarine, dried herbs and, naturally, a volcanic mineral streak that keeps the flavors pumping through a long finish. Very dry, as it should be, and a pleasure to drink.  Contains 80% Caricante and 20% Cataratto.
