Tornatore, Etna Bianco DOC (Sicily, Italy) 2020

Mar 28, 2023

By Miranda Franco

 Hailing from Sicily, this fresh and electric primarily Carricante benefits from the mineral-rich, volcanic soils of Mount Etna.  The 2020 Etna Bianco Pietrarizzo has alluring aromas of preserved lemons, white licorice, and crushed stone.  The palate is pure, dry, and mineral, with racy acidity that zings with prickly pear, lemon pith, and green apple leading into a beautiful saline finish.  Mt. Etna wines are on the rise, and wines like Tornatore are precisely why.
