Etna Bianco Muganazzi 2022, Graci
A monumental white for rigor and district identity. The olfactory profile alternates between crisp white fruits and notes of hydrocarbon and extremely refined gunpowder. On the palate, it is dense with sapidity, lively, and characterized by a masterful balance between body and acidity. A stylistic demonstration that confirms Alberto Graci as a guardian of Etna's purity.
Etna Bianco Muganazzi 2022, Graci
The Etna Bianco "Muganazzi" 2022 by Graci is a work of precise territorial expression. Made from pure Carricante grapes grown at about 700 meters of altitude, this Cru expresses the unique personality of a soil rich in ash and lapilli. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of yellow citrus, white plum, and broom merge with deep hints of flint, sulfur, and a briny trail that recalls the austere character of the volcano. On the palate, it is sumptuous in its verticality; the entry is straight and vibrant, dominated by a saline texture that unfolds toward a dry, long finish with endless aromatic persistence, characterized by echoes of bitter almond and iodine.
