Grown on the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna, in a terraced organic vineyard – hence the name ‘Scalunera’ – this white wine, bursting with freshness and character, is made exclusively from Carricante, a great indigenous Sicilian grape variety. Produced by the Torre Mora estate in the municipality of Linguaglossa, at an altitude of 650–700 metres, this Etna Bianco DOC is characterised by its volcanic terroir. Its rich bouquet highlights ripe fruit — pear, juicy apple and lime — with subtle earthy, smoky and herbaceous notes. On the palate, it evokes a lemon and lime-flavoured lemonade, enhanced by floral notes and a hint of salinity. Its tangy structure and deep minerality, typical of Etna’s soils, lend it flavour and balance, with a lovely length. Aged for a few months on lees, Torre Mora’s Scalunera Bianco combines liveliness, texture and roundness: the perfect structure to accompany seafood dishes.
