Description

A’ Puddara by Tenuta di Fessina is an Etna Bianco DOC that tells the extraordinary vitality of the northern slope of Etna, between volcanic soils rich in minerals and a unique microclimate. Made mainly from Carricante grapes, this white stands out for its vibrant freshness and elegant structure, the result of careful vinification and aging in steel and neutral wooden barrels that preserve the varietal purity.

In the glass, it presents a bright straw yellow color, while the nose opens with notes of citrus, white flowers, and a hint of flint, typical of the volcanic nature of the Etna soil. On the palate, it is intense and fresh, with a pleasant sapidity that wraps the palate, balanced by good aromatic persistence and a clean, mineral finish.

A’ Puddara is perfect to accompany fish dishes based on shellfish or Mediterranean cuisine recipes, thanks to its ability to enhance flavors without overpowering them. A white that expresses with balance and character the unique terroir of Etna.

Winery history

The project began with the arrival of Silvia Maestrelli and her husband Roberto Silva and the subsequent acquisition of small plots in the Rovittello area. Operations were formally established in 2007, with the involvement of specialist consultants and collaborators who helped shape the estate’s style.

Production philosophy

The winery presents itself as "a place of beauty between land and spirit": its approach emphasizes the expression of Etna's volcanic terroir, respect for historic vineyards, and an artisanal interpretation of viticultural and cellar practices.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located on the slopes of Mount Etna, characterized by volcanic soils, terraces and historic alberello-trained vines. For the CRU "Il Musmeci" the technical sheet indicates a north-east exposure, an altitude of around 700 m, deep soils and a composition of Nerello Mascalese with the presence of Nerello Cappuccio, Carricante and Minnella in the mixed parcels.
