If you've heard the buzz about the wines from Sicily's Mount Etna, and you want to try one of the best, look no further than Terre Nere. Made from Carricante grapes, grown on the northern slopes of the Etna volcano, Terre Nere's bottling shows the remarkable mineral component of the grape, while having an exuberant fruit quality as well. It's fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks; no oak. So all that flavor comes from the grapes grown on that special volcanic soil. We could drink this all day!

"The 2022 Etna Bianco is smoky in the glass, exciting the senses with a burst of crushed rocks and raw almonds before giving way to citrus-stringed peach. It's soothingly soft and enveloping with weighty textures lifted by vibrant acidity. Masses of mineral-laden orchard fruits and sweet spices collide on the palate. The 2022 finishes remarkably fresh yet grippy and long, leaving the mouth watering for more. The level of complexity here is off the charts for an entry-level Etna Bianco. Yum!"
