Descrizione

With a luminous straw-yellow color, it displays a fragrant, discreet profile revealing white flowers, citrus zest and light notes of white peach. On the nose the structure is clean and well-defined, with a mineral element that recalls wet stone and lends tension to the palate. The impression is one of restrained elegance: it’s a white that favors freshness and dynamism more than weight or opulence.

On the palate it confirms a balance centered on lively acidity and a hint of salinity that lengthens its persistence; the body is slim but well-supported, with citrus echoes and a gentle softness on the finish. The clean sip also makes it suitable for aperitifs and for tables where freshness and finesse are sought. Pairs well with light seafood dishes, shellfish, vegetable preparations and fresh cheeses; serving temperature around 10-12 °C to appreciate its vibrant profile.

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.
