Tenuta di Fessina A Puddara Etna Bianco DOC 2019

35,00

It is a wine dedicated to Sicily, and like the Pleiades, which are a pulsating object in the sky, it is a small continent that has a heart pulsing in the middle of the Mediterranean. A’ Puddara – “the hens” or “the hen” for fishermen and farmers, in memory of Ovid’s poem – constituted a signal indicating direction in work and life. Imagine the fishermen of Riposto returning from the sea and, looking up at the volcano, spotting the Pleiades hidden behind the summit at the very spot where, as if it were a hanging garden, the vineyard of our Carricante rests. It is a wine as rigorous and delineated as A’ Muntagna that stands out in the night…

2019 vintage weather trend

The 2019 vintage will be remembered as one of the best of the current decade; the winter was clement on the Southwest side, with harsh and cold, but not too much rain. Spring, on the other hand, saw cold peaks until late April, with a slow opening of the buds and a general slowdown in the vegetative phase until late June, where temperatures rose abruptly, melting the snows on the summit of the Volcano and steeply increasing temperatures until the end of August; in fact, in the summer months there was very little precipitation and dry, parched weather. September and October were marked by a slight increase in precipitation and clear weather with powerful temperature ranges and very cold nights. Overall, the grapes, despite a small and noticeable reduction in quantity, benefited from the splendid vintage, ensuring excellent quality and excellent concentration. The 2019 A’Puddara is taut on the nose, with hints of orange blossom, tangerine, graphite and broom, with a slight hydrocarbon and herbaceous hint. In the mouth, it is green, vertical and very iodized, with a saline and persistent finish with marked acidity.
