This wine is a tribute to the richness and diversity of the Etna terroir, characterized by volcanic soils rich in minerals, which give the wines a marked minerality and freshness.
Palmento Costanzo stands out for its dedication to valorizing native varieties and respecting Etna's unique environment, working with viticultural practices that emphasize sustainability and the expression of terroir. "Contrada Cavaliere" refers to a specific location on Etna, recognized for its microclimate and soil particularly favorable to the production of high-quality white wines.
Winemaking is carefully controlled to preserve the purity and freshness of the fruit, with temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel, followed by a brief aging on the yeasts to increase the complexity and structure of the wine without compromising its freshness.
In Magnum format, the "Contrada Cavaliere" not only offers a superior tasting experience, but also represents a prestigious choice for special occasions or as a meaningful gift. The larger size also allows for better aging potential, allowing the wine to further develop its complexity over time.
Visually, the wine shows a straw yellow color with greenish reflections. On the nose, it opens with an intense aromatic expression of white pulp fruit, citrus, floral notes and a distinct volcanic minerality that reflects the unique terroir of Etna. In the mouth, Etna Bianco "Contrada Cavaliere" reveals an extraordinary freshness and acidity, balanced by a good structure and persistent flavors of fresh fruit and minerals, which lead to a long and pleasantly savory finish.
