Carricante grapes with 10% of Minnella from a new venture of respected winemaker Salvo Foti: Palmento Caselle, on Mount Etna eastern side (800 mt. a.s.l.), in Milo, the center of typical whites of the region. Saltiness, texture and nice acidity all rounded in a highly drinkable white. — 9 years ago

Rich and acidic. Almost gritty. Blueberries, rasberries. Maybe slightly waxy. — 7 years ago

Slightly sweet in the Puglian style - articulate and precise — 9 years ago
Plenty of volcanic smoke, I can't help but feel this is much like the palmento but more expensive without reason. Great wine, but I'll move back to her other styles. — 10 years ago

Smooth as silk. Round tannin. Low acidity. Lots of dark fruits - blackberry, dark cherry, black grape. 14% abv doesn't show the heat at all. Sweet fruit finish. Good length. A crowd pleaser. For the price ($8), this is definitely a winner! — 9 years ago
This will evolve over the years and improve. It's a youngster just starting to get muscles. — 10 years ago

Light in color and palette. Screaming acidity and a slight grip on the finish. Chilled. — 6 years ago
