WINERY
Winemaking in the Benanti family can be traced back to the late 1800s in Viagrande. This deep-rooted passion for wine is what led Giuseppe Benanti to establish the namesake
winery in 1988.
WINE
Selection of Carricante grapes from vineyards located on the eastern and southern slopes of Mount Etna, particularly suitable given the high altitude and abundant luminosity.
This wine demonstrates a singular nerve as a product from these region defining slopes and vine selections.
VINEYARDS
Vines are located on the eastern and southern slopes of Mount Etna. 20 to 60 years old vines, trained as bushes or trellised, trained with free standing bush (“alberello”) and
spurred cordon systems.
VINTAGE NOTES
Drought persisted throughout the vine’s growing cycle until August-September, when rainfall enabled ripening in later-maturing areas, particularly northern slopes through mid-October near harvest completion. Vineyard location heavily influenced harvest outcomes. Lower DOC Etna altitudes, especially southern slopes, had reduced yields. Northern slopes, receiving earlier summer rains, produced higher yields with well-balanced quality
parameters. Agronomically, while vine phases advanced early, the drought limited vegetation growth and disease management was straightforward.
WINEMAKING
Fermentation occured for about 12 days at a controlled temperature of 18°C in stainless steel vats, using a specifi indigenous yeast selected in the vineyards by Benanti. The
maturation occurs in stainless steel on the fine lees for some time.
TASTING NOTES
The wine color is pale yellow with bright greenish tints. The scent is intense, while also delicate with hints of apple. The taste and body are dry, with mineral, and a pleasant acidity with saline notes and a long finish.
