Duca di Salaparuta's Etna Bianco "Lavico" is a Sicilian white wine, born in the volcanic area that's increasingly attracting international attention. It's made with Carricante grapes, a grape variety that at high altitudes produces wines with remarkable cleanliness and freshness, yet also intense and full-bodied. Hints of yellow and exotic fruits, such as peach and pineapple, are complemented by spicy notes and hints of saltiness on the finish. It's a fresh, savory white, like a mountain wine, yet also offers softness and warmth to balance the profile.
Duca di Salaparuta Etna Bianco "Lavico" displays a bright straw yellow color. On the nose, hints of peach and pineapple emerge, combined with notes of iodine and white pepper. On the palate, it offers a good balance between smoothness, pronounced freshness, and a lingering savory finish.
Excellent with Sicilian seafood specialties, try it with spaghetti alla bottarga.
