Plenty of honeysuckle and sliced lemon with some crushed stone. Medium-bodied with creamy texture and focused phenolics that give beautiful texture and length. Some flint at the end. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

This cru bottling from vines in Randazzo is youthfully creamy, offering little aroma other than that of the wood it has rested in along with stony flecks of mango and peach. Full, concentrated and with great acidity, this is a vital Carricante which has sufficient earthy yellow fruits – think pineapple, nectarine and yellow plum – to flesh out its backbone of stone and acid; a vertical yet full style which will only gain in power and weight as it ages. Impressive.
