description
Paglierino con luminosi riflessi verdolini.
Apre su delicate nuance floreali di rosa bianca, mughetto e gelsomino, abbinati a ricordi di ananas e cedro siciliano, sollevati da echi iodati.
Bocca morbida, incalzata da una garbata verve fresco-sapida che dona equilibrio. Chiusura contesa fra impressioni sapide e agrumate.

Pietradolce borns in 2005, and finds its place in Solicchiata, part of the municipality of Castiglione di Sicilia, on the North-East of Etna. The vineyard covers 10 hectares, between 600 and 800 meters above sea level, and is divided into three plots each falling in a different district: Marchesa, Moganazzi, and Chiusa Spagnolo. The soils of the vineyards are of a Franco-sandy, with abundant presence of stones and minerals - generous gift of the volcano Etna-unique features that give the wines their kind. You have chosen to grow only native vines of Etna, raised largely in the traditional sapling. Choice derived from a deep conviction that this is what the country needs. Nerello Mascalese Nerello Cappuccio and Carricante are and will be the main players in the history of Pietradolce.
