The Sands of Etna Bianco di Firriato was born in vineyards located in the municipality of Castiglione di Sicilia, in the province of Catania. It is obtained from Carricante and Catarratto grapes, harvested and selected by hand in the second decade of October. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks for 15 days, at a controlled temperature of 16-18 ° C. Subsequently the wine ages on noble lees for 3 months in stainless steel tanks and for further 2 months in bottle, before being marketed. The Sands of Etna Bianco di Firriato has a straw yellow color with greenish reflections. The nose opens with fresh floral scents of mimosa and broom that intertwine with pleasant fruity hints of peach and ripe pear. On the palate it is rich and full, with great freshness, with a long and persistent finish. It is perfect to accompany light seafood dishes such as the potato crust spatula and squid stuffed with mint, this refined white wine goes perfectly with even more intense dishes such as cacciucco and mussels au gratin.
