Bianco G, 2019

Alcohol:12% Bottle size:75cl Mid straw in colour, this wine has lively citrus aromas of grapefruit, coupled with white and yellow peach. More medium body in style than the austere “Vino di Anna Bianco 2019”, it is complex, full of flavour and has an underlying minerality and sapidity characteristic of grapes grown on volcanic soils. Predominantly made from old bush vine Grecanico, this wine is the third “Vino di Anna Bianco “G” and is made from our best Grecanico. Organically grown Grecanico grapes were hand harvested from numerous old vineyards, situated high on the north face of Mt Etna, during the second half of September. The average age of the vines is 80 years old and the altitude of the vineyards is between 800-1100 metres above sea level. Half the Grecanico was macerated for one week on skins, being foot trodden several times. The rest of the fruit was whole bunch pressed together with some Carricante from Milo and the small quantity of grapes harvested from our vineyard in Contrada Nave (NW Etna).
