“The Etna white is the perfect blend of perpetual snows and volcano flames,
of candour and liveliness, of freshness and smoky hints”.

(Mario Soldati, “Vino al vino”)

On Mount Etna, special vineyards, soils and microclimates
give different but equally unique wines.
Milo is situated in an area that was formed by a volcanic landslide
which plunged into the sea over 10.000 to 15.000 years ago.
Milo’s dark soil is composed of a mixture of debris subdivided into many distinct strata
resulting from the disintegration of lava and providing extraordinary nourishment to the vines.
Made from gobelet-trained vines, the Carricante variety has high fixed acidity,
which makes it ideal for long-term wood-ageing.
Tenuta di Fessina’s Carricante cru wine is fermented in large barrels,
according to the Etnean tradition.

IL MUSMECI, Etna DOC White Superiore – 100% Carricante

A dry spring was followed by a long, temperate summer. August and September were characterized by an abundant and unusual rainfall favoring a slower and gradual maturation of the grapes which thus profiles a rich and interesting flavor. September was rather cold and wet, followed by warm and dry weather in October that led to a favorable harvest with healthy grapes.
