Planeta Eruzione 1614 Carricante 2020
The history of Etna is studded with the historic eruptions which have shaped it. That of 1614 is legendary, lasting ten years and the longest ever recorded, halting just on the border of the vineyards of Sciaranuova. A name intensely evocative of the Cru dell’Etna; Carricante with a small addition of Riesling. High-altitude black soils confer a fresh, tasty and mineral style.

Colour

Pale golden.

Bouquet

Explosion of ripe fruit aromas and white flowers' aromatic content magically transport to the slopes of Etna.

Flavour

Softness and strength with a drinkable richness, with fruit flavours of lemon peel and green apple linked to an endearing mineral power that prolongs the finish.

Pairing

An extraordinary companion for dishes based on fish of a certain oiliness and for any dish based on fish and seafood.
