Federico Curtaz Gamma Etna Bianco Carricante 2020

$45

A Piedmontese by birth, Federico Curtaz found his way to Etna after a career with Angelo Gaja and as a consulting winemaker.  This lovely, precise and elegant expression of Etna Carricante has a beautifully French sensibility to it.  Fabulously chic in texture, aromatically dazzling and mineral to the core.  It's proper Etna Bianco, with a Chablisienne accent!   Vintage: 2020 Country: Italy Region: Sicily Appellation: Etna Grape: Carricante Drink: Now-2025

The 2020 Etna Bianco Gamma is more savory than sweet, with a mineral-inflected blend of crushed rocks, young peach and lemon oil. It's round yet takes on a crunchy feel. Tart orchard fruits and citrus tones collide over a core of zesty acidity. This leaves a tropical floral flourish along with saline minerals as the mouth is left watering and nectarine hints slowly fade. (Eric Guido, Vinous, September 2023)
