WINE DESCRIPTION

Terrazze dell Etna Ciuri Bianco is a white wine produced by Terrazze dell Etna, a renowned winery located in the Sicilian appellation of Etna. The vineyards are situated on the slopes of Mount Etna, an active volcano that provides unique soil and climate conditions for the grapes. The winemaking process involves a careful selection of the best grapes, which are then fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and fruitiness of the wine. The resulting wine is a crisp and refreshing white with aromas of citrus and white flowers, and a mineral finish that reflects the volcanic terroir. Terrazze dell Etna Ciuri Bianco is a perfect match for seafood dishes and light appetizers.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Terrazze dell Etna Ciuri Bianco is a delightful white wine from Sicily with a sunny yellow colour and a bouquet of fragrant citrus, honeysuckle, and herbs.On the palate, the wine is well balanced with a soft, round mouthfeel and a lingering finish. The flavours of lemon, lime, and apple are complemented by a light touch of minerality, and the wine has a nice acidity that keeps it fresh and lively. Enjoy this wine with a fresh salad or some grilled fish.
