Planeta Etna Bianco Contrada Taccione 2022
This wine is produced in the Feudo di Mezzo winery, lying in the centre of Etna’s wine-growing area, from Carricante grapes partially fermented in barriques. This is the result of searching for an expression of this noble grape cultivated in Etna's unique and splendid terroir.

Colour

Very bright straw.

Bouquet

Beautiful nose of yellow peach, broom flower, aromatic herbs, and wet rock.

Flavour

It immediately strikes its flavour, balanced by the remarkable returns of fruit. It closes in length with sensations of rosemary and salty mineral tones.

Pairing

Perfect with raw fish and fresh fruit, with fish appetisers, and soft cheese. Also a refined aperitif.
