This unique geology, combined with strong temperature variations, allows for a slow and steady ripening of the grapes.

The wine then matures on fine lees through \u003cstrong\u003eregular bâtonnage\u003c\/strong\u003e, enriching its structure. The final ageing gives a rounded sip with excellent \u003cstrong\u003etaste balance\u003c\/strong\u003e, capable of enhancing the natural vitality of the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in Montelaguardia under the guidance of oenologist Alessio Planeta, this \u003cstrong\u003eorganic white wine\u003c\/strong\u003e from Etna has been an expression of authentic and sustainable viticulture since 2012.
