Description
Nostru Carricante, IGT Terre Siciliane, Azienda Agricola Cortese, Sicily, Italy 2021
Grape: 100% Carricante, organic
This grape is usually seen in Etna Bianco blends. Carricante takes a starring role in this organic white, with pretty aromatics of peach, apricot, stewed apple, citrus and blossom. There's a brisk acidity on the palate, with fresh notes of green apple and yellow citrus. A clean and mineral style, made with precision.
Critics' Tasting Notes:
"Rediscovering precious grape varieties from Sicily's rich past. With a big personality and distinctive minerality this is a memorable white." Decanter
"A fresh nose of lemon cream, lily and white peach. Medium-to full bodied with a silky texture. Bright acidity lifts up the citrus and stone-fruited palate with a pleasantly soft finish." James Suckling
