CAVANERA Contrada Zottorinotto ETNA DOC Bianco
Tasting notes
COLOR: Straw yellow with evident greenish reflections.
NOSE: The volcanic soil of the district influences the aromatic profile of the wine. The balsamic and mineral notes stand out on a bouquet of white flowers and cedar and lemon peel. The olfactory imprint heralds pleasant mineral evolutions which over time will further complicate this already interesting presentation.
PALATE: Lively and savoury, with an important and balanced body. Pleasant, highly drinkable and persistent fruity hints of white peach with an almond aftertaste that remains long in the mouth."

Why choose it
Cavanera Contrada Zottorinotto is a white wine of great class, because it is essential in wanting to stand out for its production style and oenological expression, refined yet distinctive in fully capturing the aromatic profile of its Carricante grapes obtained from a vineyard located in Contrada Zottorinotto, in the territory of Castiglione di Sicilia, on the north-eastern side of the volcano. Aromaticity and minerality in a vibrant game of a thousand taste-olfactory sensations. Power and finesse in harmony with balsamic hints and minerality pushed to the sublime, when enriched with white flowers and peels rich in aromas of cedar and lemon. A breadth that shines on the palate in the marked flavor and in the elegant and clear hint of white peach which flows into a very fine but prolonged, very pleasant finish of almond sweets.
