It&#8217;s not a metaphor: it&#8217;s what really happens when you have a Carricante from 800 meters in your glass, with its aromas of wet stone, almost salty citrus, and flowers that seem to have grown on cooled lava. The volcano isn&#8217;t a backdrop: it&#8217;s an ingredient.<\/p>\n<p>During my last <strong>Sicily en primeur,<\/strong> I tasted several Etna white wines, including Etna Bianco DOC, IGT, and even several Metodo Classico wines, exploring different districts and styles with the same curiosity that one feels exploring an unfamiliar map. The picture that emerges is of a region that has found its voice\u2014and has no intention of diminishing it.

The <strong>2020<\/strong> vintage is fresh, savory, and smooth, with that aniseed finish that only great white wines can deliver. Unsurpassed finesse, as always. At the table, it calls for something equally complex: <em>Livorno-style red mullet or sweet and sour swordfish.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>The best surprise,<\/strong> however, comes from the <strong>Trainara 2024 by Generazione Alessandro<\/strong> : fresh white fruit of pear and peach, light spice, a soft and elegant palate, lively acidity, and persistent freshness.

The <strong>Pietradolce Archineri 2024\u2014100<\/strong> % Carricante from centuries-old vines in Milo\u2014is a triumph of citrus, flowers, and almond, with an intense, savory, and vibrant palate: <em>stewed cuttlefish with peas<\/em> , without too much thought. The same register for the <strong>San Lorenzo 2024 from Girolamo Russo<\/strong> : smoky, spicy, peppery, and rosemary, with a fresh, savory palate that&#8217;s a serious drink. It demands serious food\u2014 <em>grilled red tuna with capers and olives<\/em> .<\/p>\n<p><strong>Graci&#8217;s 2024 Muganazzi<\/strong> , on the other hand, exudes <strong>muscle and character<\/strong> : ginger, sulfurous notes, white flowers, and spices, a lively, full-bodied, and very savory flavor. &#8220;Lots of muscle,&#8221; I wrote in my notebook, and I stand by it. The dish that does it justice is <em>pasta with sardines, Palermo-style<\/em> : they instantly connect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Cottanera chapter<\/strong> deserves a separate note: the <strong>2021 Etna Bianco Contrada Cottanera<\/strong> is bright, rounded, and vibrant: words usually used for red wines. Broom-like, smoky, with an intense and savory palate and an almond finish. It truly finds its most enveloping expression with a <em>seafood and saffron risotto<\/em> .<\/p>\n<p><strong>The 2024 Alberelli di Giodo Carricante<\/strong> is as vibrant as a volcanic wine should be: citrus, lime, white peach, jasmine, and a mineral, saline finish. Vertical and precise. It calls for <em>oysters or raw sea urchins.<\/em> Period.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A large and far from banal group<\/strong> moves on equally convincing levels. The <strong>2024 Fumante from Campor\u00e8<\/strong> \u2014that subtle smoky vein is already in the name\u2014goes with an <em>octopus salad with potatoes and lemon.<\/em> The <strong>2022 Isolano from Donnafugata<\/strong> , citrusy and mineral with its slight bitterness, finds the ideal counterbalance in the <em>mixed fried fish<\/em> . The <strong>2024 Feudo from Girolamo Russo<\/strong> , full-bodied and dynamic with its exotic notes of mango and ginger, pairs with <em>raw red prawns from Mazara with citrus<\/em> . <strong>Gambino&#8217;s 2024 Tifeo<\/strong>, more floral than fruity but lively and concentrated, with an intense and very savory palate that gradually expands, finds its ideal pairing in fried calamari with lemon: freshness against freshness. The <strong>2024 Taccione from Planeta<\/strong> , elegant aromas and a progressive sip, calls for <em>creamed cod<\/em> . The <strong>2021 Imbris<\/strong> from <strong>I Custodi delle Vigne dell&#8217;Etna<\/strong> , floral and peppery, goes with <em>herb-marinated mackerel<\/em> . The <strong>2023 Sciaranuova from Tasca d&#8217;Almerita<\/strong> , large and almost honeyed, deserves a <em>Trapani-style fish couscous<\/em> . <strong>Palmento Costanzo&#8217;s 2023 Contrada Santo Spirito<\/strong> , spicy with a coffee finish, pairs very well with <em>Ischia-style rabbit with olives and capers<\/em> .<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-18441 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260512_123501-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260512_123501-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260512_123501-577x1024.jpg 577w, https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260512_123501-768x1364.jpg 768w, https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260512_123501-865x1536.jpg 865w, https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260512_123501.jpg 901w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/>Two wines deserve special mention.<\/strong> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-18460 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260514_103232-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260514_103232-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260514_103232-577x1024.jpg 577w, https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260514_103232-768x1364.jpg 768w, https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260514_103232-865x1536.jpg 865w, https:\/\/winereporter.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260514_103232.jpg 901w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/>The <strong>Musmeci Bianco 2023 from Tenuta di Fessina,<\/strong> elegant and profound, is a great wine that demands a great shellfish: a <em>Catalan-style lobster<\/em> .

It opens delicately with floral and white fruit, then becomes enveloping on the palate, with a long and measured cedar finish.
