2023 Ayunta Nerello Mascalese Bianco, Sicily, Italy (750ml)

WINEMAKER’S NOTES:  Nerello Mascalese is the primary red grape used for Etna Rosso blends, but Filippo is making white wine with it — a renegade move but one that honors the local tradition of vinifying in white as a base for metodo classico sparkling wines. The juice is pressed off the skins without maceration to make this searing, mineral driven white. Apples, peaches, citrus peel and white flowers, with a flinty saline finish.

Original price was: $22.99.Current price is: $18.39.
