Etna Bianco DOC Trainara, Organic

On the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna, over 600 meters high, this white wine grows in a soil that is second to none: black lava, ash, mineral-rich earth — you can taste it. Generazione Alessandro relies on 90% Carricante and 10% Catarratto, two indigenous grape varieties that have been grown here for generations and reflect the character of this extraordinary volcanic island in the glass.

On the nose, the Trainara opens with citrus peel, fresh herbs, and a distinct salty minerality — a direct reference to the lava soil. On the palate, it appears lean and taut, with a lively acidity structure and a long, salty-stony finish. Not a wine that stands out for its fullness, but for its precision and loyalty to its origin.

It pairs excellently with sea fish in a salt crust, grilled sea bream, or a cedri carpaccio with burrata — the salty note of the wine extends the sea aromas on the plate. Serving temperature: 10–12 °C. Also a convincing choice as an aperitif with olives and caponata.
