The Etna Bianco DOC "Isolano" produced by the renowned Donnafugata winery is one of the most excellent expressions of the native Carricante grape, typical of the slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily. This wine stands out for its refined elegance and intense aromaticity, the result of a unique terroir and winemaking methods that are attentive and respectful of tradition.
Visually, it presents a bright straw-yellow color with greenish reflections that underline its freshness. On the nose, it opens with intense notes of white-fleshed fruit, such as peach and orange, accompanied by nuances of white flowers and mineral hints from the volcanic soil. Additional aromatic complexity is provided by a slight note of fresh almond and a hint of sweet spices, enriching the bouquet.
On the palate, Donnafugata's Etna Bianco "Isolano" is extremely well-balanced, maintaining a beautiful acidity that enhances its freshness and drinkability. The minerality is pronounced and well balanced by the fruitiness, leading to a long and pleasantly persistent finish that recalls the aromas perceived on the nose.
Perfect as an aperitif, this wine can beautifully accompany dishes of fish, seafood, and fresh cheeses, best expressing the qualities of the grape and the territory. It is also ideal alongside delicate vegetable-based dishes or risottos.
Thus, the Etna Bianco DOC "Isolano" from Donnafugata is an excellent choice for lovers of high-quality Sicilian white wines, who appreciate the typicality and uniqueness derived from one of Italy's most fascinating wine regions.
