MOFETE ETNA WHITE DOC 2021 - PALMENTO COSTANZO
The "Mofete" is an Etna Bianco that the Costanzo family, owner of the Palmento Costanzo winery, creates starting from two native vineyards: Carricante and Cataratto.
After the harvest, done strictly by hand, the grapes are softly pressed, and then remain in steel containers for up to 6 months, at the end of which we proceed with bottling.
It is characterized by a straw yellow color, by a perfume with notes composed of citrus and minerals, typical smells of Etna, and the taste is very fresh, savory and agile.
Due to its characteristics it is a compromise between a dry and a fruity one, for this reason it is excellent to combine with an appetizer, even better if made up of raw seafood.
