Enkeltmarksvinen fra Graci. Simpelthen en klassevin.
Fra 600-1.000 meter over havet.
Gæring i cementtank. Efterfølgende 12. mdr. på delvis cement og Stockinger fad. Derefter 12 mdr. på flasken. Supersprød og mineralsk.
Desværre kan vi ikke få mange af de få flasker, der produceres.

"Bright yellow. Aromas of lemon, quince and wildflowers on the captivating, very minerally nose. Multilayered and dense but bright as well, offering vibrant flavors of stone fruits and fresh citrus complicated by flinty minerality. A hint of petrol emerges on the juicy, long finish. I can’t remember ever having tasted a better white wine from Graci."

"Graci produces some of the finest wines on Etna. The 2015 Etna Bianco Arcurìa (100% Carricante) is a delightful wine that absolutely revives and refreshes the palate with each beautiful sip. It is fragrant and fresh but it also offers a very firm sense of depth. The bouquet opens to salty mineral tones with lighter layers of white peach and tangerine skin. The Arcurìa vineyard, located just opposite the Graci palmento and winery, is planted to ancient vines."
