Etna Bianco Doc A' Puddara 2018 - Tenuta Di Fessina

Etna Bianco "A' Puddara" is an intense and structured wine, it has a beautiful aromatic complexity, with territorial notes of broom, honey, fruit and lava stone in evidence. The sip is soft, warm and savoury, with pleasant mineral traces. This marvel of the territory is cultivated at 900 mt. Above sea level. The harvest takes place in October, the pressing is done without destemming, and the fermentation is in 3500 lt oak barrels. After which there is a refinement on the fine lees for 6-8 months. Straw yellow in colour with green reflections, on the nose hints of graphite, orange peel, mango, broom and aromatic herbs. On the palate it has an entrance of candied fruit, with buttery notes, a vertical minerality stands out, a high acidity with hints of lemon peel and tropical fruit. Savory and marine finish, almost salty.

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.
