Nicosia Etna Bianco Lenza di Munti 2024

95 Points, James Suckling (Certified Organic)

Their vineyards sit at a staggering 2500 feet altitude on volcanic lava terraces, creating dramatic day/night temperature swings in soil rich with potassium, lava sand, and tiny pumice stones.

James Suckling called it “Extremely perfumed and fresh with sliced-apple, lemon, lemongrass and lime aromas” on the nose with a “medium body with bright acidity and a tangy finish. Really mineral. Vibrant.” Made from 100% Carricante planted at high altitude, this definitely capures the essence of Etna’s volcanic terroir imparting all kinds of flavors and smells that are completely unique. Not many people smell Etna Biancos and compare it other whites – it’s a treasure of its own.
