Review Date: 06/2025A restrained lemony profile for this Etna, full of broom flowers and a rich core of stone fruit. Vibrant palate with zesty acidity and a weighty, silky texture. Long, flowery finish. Drink now. (AF)

Notes
The 2023 Giovanni Rosso Etna Bianco is a striking, 100% Carricante produced from Davide Rosso's Montedolce estate on the northern slopes of Mount Etna. Whole-bunch pressed and raised entirely in stainless steel and cement with five months on the fine lees, this vintage beautifully bridges the producer's Piedmontese precision with intense volcanic energy. In the glass, it shows a pale straw yellow color. The nose is remarkably fresh and focused, opening with aromas of yellow citrus peel, white peach, and broom flowers, layered with white smoke and wild mint leaf. On the palate, the wine delivers a brilliant combination of juicy orchard fruit and a rich, rounded texture from the lees, effortlessly reined in by a piercing, vertical acidity. It finishes remarkably long, mouth-watering, and intensely salty, leaving a lasting imprint of smoky flint and lime zest.
