Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
From Etna’s beautiful Guardiola cru, this unoaked Chardonnay delivers fantastically fresh aromas of mountain herbs, tomato leaf, citrus and peach. It’s a sophisticated and intriguing wine thanks to the mineral and brimstone notes that appear on the tail end.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Vintner Andrea Franchetti (a Tuscan interloper on Mt. Etna) has successful managed that difficult balance between power and elegance. This gorgeous wine is pure, direct, focused and sharp with pretty berry and floral notes backed by smoky volcanic impulses. The wine exudes richness and opulence, but not in an exaggerated way.
