In Lavico Etna Bianco the Carricante, an indigenous vine of the Etna area, tells of its land through intense aromas of peach and exotic fruit, lit by iodine, sometimes spicy sensations. Savory and persistent on the palate, it has the typical freshness of the vine, which gives it structure and unexpected longevity, and the minerality of those who have their roots in a soil made of lava.
Vintage: 2021

Produced in Sicily
On the slopes of the volcano, in an area to which the terrain gives unique characteristics, Duca di Salaparuta has chosen the Vajasindi estate, in the municipality of Castiglione di Sicilia and Randazzo, for the new Lavico Etna DOC project. Here he decided to experiment with the peculiarities of mountain agriculture, giving voice to the two native vines, Carricante and Nerello Mascalese. Lavico Etna Bianco is therefore an expression of this challenging but rich territory of excellence, and tells it through the liveliness of Carricante which is accompanied by balance, intensity and taste persistence.
Ideal to accompany fish dishes. Try it served with… Spaghetti with clams and bottarga.
