Curation Note
The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01Carricante, the principal grape of Etna with 90% in the blend, here supported by 10% Catarratto, finds its purest expression in the volcanic soil and in old vines meticulously selected. This Etna Bianco Doc Contrada Blandano, born from saplings that tell the story of Terra Costantino's patience and passion, promises a profound experience.
-
Palate & Finish
02Extended aging, both in barrel and bottle, gives the wine remarkable complexity, a solid structure, and an elegance that gradually unfolds. On the nose, aromas evoking the territory are perceived, a prelude to a savory and mineral sip.
-
At the Table
03It pairs splendidly with first courses based on fish, gratinated shellfish, or local fresh cheeses.
