Benanti is now synonymous with Mount Etna and stands out as one of the first and finest producers to start making world class wines on the slopes of the volcano.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.

Very good. Lemon line. Doesn’t linger and little depth or salt but very nice. Tad sweet.

Really vibrant lemony flavor, balanced by a bit of creaminess from oak, I think. Interesting curry nose as well.
