The Etna Bianco Superiore DOC "Mari di Ripiddu" produced by the prestigious Filippo Grasso winery represents the excellence of Sicilian white wines, born from the embrace between the ancient vines and the unique terroir of the Etna volcano. This wine is mainly made from Carricante grapes, typical of the region, with the possible addition of a small percentage of other native varieties.

The grape harvest is carried out manually at optimal times to ensure integrity and freshness. The wine is then aged in steel to maintain all the original aromatic nuances of the grapes. The result is a surprisingly rich olfactory spectrum, ranging from notes of ripe white fruit, such as peach and pear, to more complex nuances of aromatic herbs and stony minerality that reflect the volcanic soil of cultivation.

On the palate, "Mari di Ripiddu" expresses a perfect balance between acidity and smoothness, delivering a full and enveloping sip, characterized by a long and pleasantly fresh aromatic persistence. Its structure also promises good aging potential.

Ideally served between 10 and 12 degrees Celsius, this Etna Bianco Superiore pairs beautifully with seafood, elaborate fish dishes, or soft cheeses. A wine that not only tells the story of its territory but also celebrates the winemaking art of Filippo Grasso, making it perfect for any collector or enthusiast who wants to discover the nuances of one of Sicily's most fascinating terroirs.
