Description
Cantine Cellaro Etna Bianco DOC is a volcanic white from the northern slope of Mount Etna in Sicily, a blend of Carricante and Catarratto.
Etna is unlike the rest of Sicily. The vineyards climb the slopes of an active volcano, on black lava soils, at altitudes where the nights are cold and the harvest runs late. Cantina Cellaro is a growers' cooperative founded in 1970 at Sambuca di Sicilia in the west of the island, and its Etna wines come from a partnership with growers at Randazzo, on the volcano's northern slope. The blend is 90% Carricante, the mountain's native white grape, prized for its high natural acidity, with 10% Catarratto. It is fermented in stainless steel and matured on its fine lees for four months.
It suits grilled fish, shellfish, pasta with seafood and fresh cheeses; serve at around 10 to 12 degrees.
