Cusumano Alta Mora Etna Bianco 2024 750ml
Sicily
Italy

"A subtle nose unveils aromas of white flowers, crushed rocks, sea shells and new leather. The savory, salty palate is headlined by tart citrus and tree fruit, and has a taut, linear overall feel." —Wine Enthusiast

"The Alta Mora 2024 Etna Bianco nicely captures the character of both the volcano and Carricante, with an emphasis on sharpness, freshness and mineral definition. This balanced white is particularly well suited to an informal spread of appetizers, where its salty minerality cuts through richer or fattier foods. Fruit comes from the Contrade Arrigo, Verzella, Pietramarina, Piano dei Daini and other sites on the northern slope, with both alberello and cordon-trained vines. The wine fermented using the estate’s native yeasts, and it aged in stainless steel on the fine lees for 10 months. Production is 40,000 bottles." —Wine Advocate

"Mineral and more savory than fruity on the nose. Medium-bodied, with juicy acidity giving length. Focused and precise. Drink or hold." —James Suckling
