Erse Etna Bianco DOC 2019 - Tenuta Di Fessina
Erse Etna Bianco Doc represents the enormous potential of this grape variety that has always been considered a “luxury gregarious” of Nerello Mascalese in the traditional blend of Etna DOC for its notable qualities of freshness and longevity. Wine grown at 900 m above sea level, the harvest takes place in October, and the fermentation in steel at a controlled temperature. The refinement: in bottle for 8 months. Straw yellow in color with green hues, on the nose aromas of broom, mountain herbs, lemon peel, almond and white flowers. On the palate savory with a high acidity, notes of flint, toasting, a persistent herbaceous with a salty finish. A fresh, direct and non-trivial glass for a toast at sunset and the colors of the day slowly melt into the sky…cheers
Fessina Estate
Silvia Maestrelli's desire has been, from the beginning, to create "a place of beauty, between earth and spirit", rather than a winery in the strict sense, in which people, skills, energies could converge and in turn merge to enrich the intangible heritage of the Estate, made up of relationships, exchanges and ideas both professional and human around the culture of wine and good living. Pioneer and woman - among the producers who have given new impetus to winemaking on Etna, Silvia Maestrelli - from an entrepreneurial Florentine family, emigrated to Milan for love - arrived on Etna already in 2006, in the wake of a love for this land full of contrasts. A real coup de foudre for a difficult land, strongly masculine, but of enormous charm and equally great winemaking potential. Thus began a new phase in her life and a search, both personal and professional, which would give life in 2007 - to the birth of Tenuta di Fessina.
