* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Calabretta delivers an easy white wine (made from Carricante) with sharp mineral tones at the back of citrus and peach. There’s personality here thanks to volcanic soils but ultimately this is the kind of wine you’ll want to pair with salad or tuna.

From the Calderara Contrada near Randazzo on Mt. Etna, Calabretta’s red shows pungent aromas of apple skin, licorice and raw fruit. There’s a volatile element to the nose that is a bit overwhelming at first.

More than 10 years following the harvest, this expression from Mt. Etna is on the decline. There are pungent apple aromas that keep it going and the wine’s alcoholic power fuels persistency, but ultimately there’s not enough natural fruit left.
