Descrizione

Fresh and savory, Feudo Etna Bianco DOC by Girolamo Russo stands out for its clarity and a lively tension on the palate that speaks of its volcanic origin. On the nose it opens with notes of ripe citrus, white flowers and a hint of Mediterranean herbs; the texture is subtle but precise, with a pungent minerality that dries the palate without weighing it down. The profile is elegant, never showy, and invites sip after sip thanks to a bright acidity that keeps the whole fresh and dynamic.

On the palate it shows good definition: medium-bodied, with a sapid, mouthwatering quality and aromatic echoes that balance the palate. Tannins are absent and the softness is controlled; the finish remains clean and of good persistence, suitable for those seeking a terroir-driven white with immediate appeal. It pairs well with not-too-elaborate seafood dishes, light soups, grilled vegetables and fresh cheeses; serve cool, but not icy, to appreciate its balance and finesse.

Winery history

The winery was re-established by Giuseppe Russo as a tribute to his father Girolamo. According to the company, the estate was reorganized and relaunched in 2005 and works with historic vineyards on the northern slopes of Mount Etna, cultivated using traditional practices and hand-harvested.

Production philosophy

The approach aims to highlight the character of each distinct vineyard site: viticulture practiced close to nature, attention to old bush-trained vines, and winemaking that respects the differences of each vineyard to express the minerality, freshness and complexity of the volcanic soil.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards located on the northern slopes of Etna, with parcels in contrade such as San Lorenzo, Feudo, Feudo di Mezzo and Calderara Sottana. The vines are situated at altitudes of approximately 650–780 meters above sea level and grow on the volcanic, sandy soils typical of Etna's "sciare".

Awards and recognitions

Etna Bianco "San Lorenzo" is listed among the wines awarded Tre Bicchieri in Gambero Rosso's 2026 selection; additionally, several vintages of the winery's labels have received high ratings from specialist publications and guides, as reported in the critical notes.
