The Tornatore 2022 Etna Bianco Zottorinotto, made with 100% Carricante that undergoes eight months of aging in acacia wood barrel, shows a silky, mid-weight texture. Fruit is harvested from a site located at a cool 700 meters above sea level. This wine opens to a slightly more saturated appearance with golden highlights. It wraps over the palate with silky intensity thanks to the natural richness of the fruit. Drink date: [Now]-2030. Score - 92. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, April 17, 2025)

Tornatore is one of the larger wineries among dozens on the north slope of Mt. Etna. Made from the local carricante grape, this is a hefty yet streamlined white with a complex and well integrated nose of almost tropical guava and olive overlaid with the flinty/smoky aromas of Etna's volcanic soils. Almost peppery as well. It is a full bodied fairly dense and serious white with girth and length. Really solid and well balanced with excellent length. Tasted March 2024. Score - 91.
