"A tightly meshed white, with structured acidity creating a mouthwatering frame for notes of yellow apple, pear, grapefruit pith, blanched almond, rosemary and spring blossoms. Long and salty, with mineral drive on the racy finish. Best from 2028 through 2038."A.N."

"This has beautiful freshness and honey character with sliced apples and pears as well as lemons and honey. Medium- to full-bodied, it has depth of fruit, minerals and a long finish with cement undertones. Drink or hold."

"The 2023 Etna Bianco Santo Spirito opens with a rich mix of ripe apricot and yellow apple complemented by nuances of vanilla bean and custard. This is soothingly round with a gentle inner sweetness and a wave of ripe orchard fruits elevated by brisk acidity. It leaves the palate stained in youthful concentration, finishing lightly structured with a pleasant bitterness."
