The Etna DOC Bianco "Di Sei" wine in Magnum format by Palmento Costanzo is a fine selection that embodies the expression of viticulture on Etna, the famous volcanic region of Sicily. This wine is a tribute to the incredible biodiversity and rich winemaking heritage of Etna, enhancing the unique character of the native Sicilian vines grown on the slopes of the highest active volcano in Europe.
The name "Di Sei" suggests a distinctive element linked to the production or blend of this wine, which, while maintaining the typicality of Etna DOC whites, offers a particular narrative of its connection with the territory. Produced by Palmento Costanzo, a winery that has been able to stand out for the quality and authenticity of its wines, "Di Sei" is the result of experience and passion for a unique territory.
Typically, Etna DOC white wines are mainly produced from the Carricante grape, appreciated for its vibrant acidity, mineral notes and aging capacity, often accompanied by Catarratto which enriches its aromatic profile. The Magnum format, which corresponds to two standard 750ml bottles, is ideal not only for sharing occasions but also for better aging potential, allowing the wine to develop complexity and harmony over time.
The winemaking aims to preserve the freshness and intrinsic aromatic qualities of the vines, with fermentation conducted at a controlled temperature to enhance the varietal characteristics and the link with the volcanic territory. The refinement, usually short and in steel, helps to keep the purity of the fruit intact.
At sight, "Di Sei" has a bright straw yellow color, while on the nose the notes of white pulp fruit, citrus fruits, aromatic herbs and that distinctive minerality which speaks directly of the volcanic soil of origin are immediately distinguishable. In the mouth, the wine reveals an extraordinary freshness, supported by a solid acid structure and a palate rich in nuances that vary from fresh fruit to more complex and mineral sensations, with a long and persistent finish.
Perfect as an aperitif or paired with fish dishes, seafood, light appetizers and fresh cheeses, the "Di Sei" by Palmento Costanzo in Magnum format is a choice of great elegance and versatility, which celebrates the excellence of the white wines produced on Etna.
