Leírás
A Carricante valószínűleg az egyik legérdekesebb, legsokrétűbb fehér szőlőfajta: történelmileg savtartalma és termőképessége miatt lett közkedvelt, valamint nagy erénye miatt, miszerint hűen tükrözi a termőhelyet.
A Buonora egy olyan bor, amely származási helyéről, az Etna vulkánról mesél: ásványos, kénes jegyekben bővelkedő, jól érlelhető különleges fehérbor.
Hűtött, rozsdamentes acéltartályban erjedt és 4 hónapig érlelődött finomseprőn.
Alkohol: 12,5%
James Suckling 92 pont: Egy pazar fehérbor, melyben remekül keveredik a szárított ananász, a mandula, a rózsaszín grapefruit, a szegfűszeg és a tejszín. Ízében nagyon élénk, trópusi ízekkel. Telt test, némi savanyúság és közepesen hosszú lecsengés.
