Varietal Carricante

Carricante is a white grape variety indigenous to Sicily, particularly thriving on the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna. This ancient grape has been cultivated for centuries, known for producing wines with remarkable freshness and minerality. Carricante wines often exhibit citrusy aromas, such as lemon and orange blossom, along with apple and herbal notes, underpinned by a distinctive saline quality. The high altitude and volcanic soils of Mount Etna impart a unique terroir, contributing to the wine’s crisp acidity and longevity. What makes Carricante unique is its ability to retain acidity even in the hot Sicilian climate, resulting in vibrant, age-worthy wines. Often blended with other local varieties like Catarratto, Carricante shines as a pure varietal expression, capturing the essence of its volcanic origin and offering wine enthusiasts a taste of Sicily’s diverse and rich wine heritage.

Country Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.

Region Sicily

The beautiful island of Sicily has been growing grapevines and producing wines for thousands of years, ever since the ancient Greeks first landed on its golden shores and noticed the island's true potential as a haven for quality grapes. Today, the island is one of Italy's primary wine regions, and even though over eighty percent of Sicily's grapevines are used for the production of sweet fortified wines, the remaining wineries making other wine styles are renowned around the world for their quality and character. Indeed, Sicilian wineries are famed for their ability to capture something of the sun-drenched region in their wines, and the vines they cultivate benefit enormously from the almost constant sunshine and the incredibly fertile volcanic soils which typify the island.

The 2018 Etna Bianco Superiore Imbris is smoky on the nose, as wet stones and underbrush give way to sage, grilled mango and almond custard. It's surprisingly juicy and fresh with soft textures and white pit fruits. The close is a bit short but squeaky clean, with a caking of minerality and touches of citrus.
