Emilio Sciacca - Biancopiglio Etna Bianco DOC 2020, Sicilia

Organic and biodynamically grown local grape varieties Carricante, Catarratto and Grecanico Dorato from 70 year old vineyards are aged for 6 months in stainless steel in Emilio's small winery. Nothing added or taken away from this white wine other than a small amount of sulphites at bottling. This natural wine from Etna is remarkably fresh - similar to a great Riesling - with flavours of lemons, limes, stony minerals and herbs.
