100% Carricante
WINE ADVOCATE 93 POINTS - "The Benanti 2021 Etna Bianco Contrada Cavaliere shows a layer of citrus at first, then bitter almond and unripe peach. The bouquet is mostly neutral in character at this young stage with a subtle, slow-moving evolution in the glass. It shows a luminous golden color with greenish highlights. The finish is very clean, ending with a pronounced mineral character... You should count on some pretty aromatic evolution with this bottle in the next years to come."
"Vineyard in Contrada Cavaliere, south-west slope of Mount Etna, within the municipality of Santa Maria di Licodia (CT). This contrada is known for its high elevation (almost 950 m a.s.l. / 3,100 ft a.s.l.), low rainfall rate and abundant luminosity."
Selected native yeast fermented in stainless steel at controlled temperature, lasting around 12 days
