Cottanera Barbazzale Bianco is a distinctive Sicilian white wine, defying the typical Etna bianco conventions as it ventures beyond Carricante. Produced by Cottanera in the commune of Castiglione di Sicilia on the northern slope of Mount Etna, this wine emerges from the vineyards of Contrada Cottanera, standing at an altitude of 720 meters. A blend primarily composed of Catarratto, complemented by a touch of Viognier, this wine is a testament to the region's diverse terroir. With an average vine age of 15 years and low yields of 90 quintals per hectare, the vineyards are meticulously tended to with a cordon training system and a planting density of 5700 plants per hectare. The winemaking process involves cold maceration followed by static settling. Fermentation occurs at a controlled temperature of 16°C for 20 days, and the wine undergoes refinement in stainless steel on lees for approximately three months. Harvested manually in crates during the first decade of September, the grapes thrive in the unique volcanic-alluvial soils of the region. Cottanera Barbazzale Bianco is a harmonious blend that captures the essence of Sicily's northern Etna slopes, offering a refreshing and aromatic expression of the local varietals.
