Winemaker Notes: 

"The Pianta vineyard has been in Ciro’s family for hundreds of years; it is on the terraced slopes of an old crater on the South side of Mt Etna. Ciro ferments in oak, then age in the oak because a byproduct of the fermentation in oak prevents the wine from picking up too much oak character. Notes of yellow flowers, apricot, and herbs — round, lush, and mineral. Beautiful with seafood or roast chicken." 

Alcohol: 12.5%
