Terra Costantino Etna Bianco DeAetna 2021
The name DeAetna, inspired by the title of a Latin pamphlet dated 1494, expresses the sacredness of the oenological universe. Written in dialogue form, the text tells of the ascension to the top of the volcano by a Venetian writer, Pietro Bembo, after returning from his stay in Messina at Constantine Lascaris’s. The description and study of Mt.Etna and its activity assign to "DeAetna" classical and historical mysticism giving the Sicilian wine the most intellectual moment of the encounter at the table.

Colour

Straw yellow.

Bouquet

Olfactory profile designed by the typical "Sicilian" traits that are expressed with sweet citrus and summer fruit, orange blossom and lily of the valley, coastal scrub with herbs, capers and olives and the salty and warm sensations of the sea.

Flavour

The energetic, fresh, savoury progression draws a dynamic, yet warm and enveloping sip, which returns with consistent citrus and saline echoes in the long finish.

Pairing

Fish
Shellfish
Cheese
