    Donnafugata's impressive declaration of love to Etna, currently the hottest wine hotspot, began with the Sul Vulcano line. Carricante is one of the most exciting grape varieties in southern Italy, capable of complexity and terroir-driven expression in the right soils. The vines for Donnafugata's only white wine from Etna grow on volcanic soils rich in minerals at an altitude of 700-750 metres. The wine is fermented in steel tanks before maturing partly in concrete tanks and partly in second and third choice barriques for 10 months and then a further nine months in the bottle.

    Straw yellow with golden reflections. Bouquet of white flowers and notes of wild herbs and citrus. On the palate, it is full, fresh and flavoursome and finishes with impressive freshness, elegance and an exciting mineral vein. SUPERIORE.DE

    "The 2022 Etna Bianco Sul Vulcano shows fresh, floral aromas and citrus fruits and remains a wine with brightness and luminosity. It offers a beautiful freshness and a concentrated acidity with lemon and a hint of passion fruit or grapefruit, which give lightness and lift to the bouquet. There is also a nice salinity on the finish. It offers a lot of freshness and accessibility." Wine Advocate

    "In the glass, the 2022 Etna Bianco Sul Vulcano is intense and airy. It smells of dried flowers, crushed stones and ginger shavings. On the palate, it has a silky texture that is complemented by tactile mineral tones, savoury spice notes and crunchy fruit cascades. The clean finish leaves a sweet and sour sensation in the mouth." Vinous

    "The flavours of dried lemon peel and grapefruit cover the waxy texture with a mineral shimmer that intensifies towards the end." Decanter
