Product Overview
Winery's Notes:
"They are wines whose rare complexity and structure flourishes wonderfully over time. Of great longevity, they will reward your patience with a beauty of unusual nobility. Unlike Calderara Sottana, this wine has a more open and exuberant nose - thanks to the generosity of the lots and lots of volcanic ash present in the Contrada. If Calderara Sottana is a tenor, Santo Spirito is more of a soprano: the freshness is more accentuated, as is the spring liveliness, floral and rich expression of his very fine nature."

"The 2022 Etna Bianco is smoky in the glass, exciting the senses with a burst of crushed rocks and raw almonds before giving way to citrus-stringed peach. It’s soothingly soft and enveloping with weighty textures lifted by vibrant acidity. Masses of mineral-laden orchard fruits and sweet spices collide on the palate. The 2022 finishes remarkably fresh yet grippy and long, leaving the mouth watering for more. The level of complexity here is off the charts for an entry-level Etna Bianco. Yum!" -EG, Jun/2023
