ORGANOLEPTIC NOTES: an Etnean Metodo Classico? Can-do! An extraordinary surprise that this Sicilian La Montagna gave us, thanks to the freshness of the Carricante harvested slightly before time and thanks to the fine sands that manage together to generate not only floral and never intrusive fragrances, but also a citric fruitiness of great minerality that supports a refined and persistent perlage. In the mouth, the wine flows very smoothly with a delicate flavor of cedar and passion fruit. Surprising flavor enchantment, rich and punctuated by Mediterranean scrub aromas on the finish. PAIRING: Perfect for starting, or ending, any evening, its acidic freshness allows it to reach where many wines may not dare such as a stir-fry or markedly greasy dishes.
