Benanti Etna Bianco Carricante 2017

$26.99

100% Carricante from high altitude albarello (andldquo;little treeandrdquo;) trained vines. Powerful and racy with hints of white flowers and honeydew melon all with a mouth-watering saline finish. Carricante is indigenous to Etna and this is a perfect wine to get acquainted with this noble variety.

Pale straw. Open knit, very clean pear, peach and nectarine aromas, with strong floral undertones. Easygoing and subtle, with flavors of pear, apple, mint and minerals, and a lightly tropical quality. Nicely persistent on the juicy finish. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, August 2019)

Ok, but not my favorite example of Nero Mascalese. Dinner at Marlena was far better. What a standout Bernal restaurant.

Tightly wound white with finely tuned citrus and rocks. Just enough flesh to make it an easy drink. Will buy more
