  淡柠檬色，闻香有柠檬，柑橘，白花，饼干和矿物气息，入口高酸，酒液咸，矿物感清晰，柠檬混合着白花，轻微植物气息，一些青苹果的味道，后段植物微苦绷紧酒体，简单干净的一支酒，还有一些细节的表现，果香新鲜，口中回甘，很适合这个季节。

  Retail 24€, Restaurant 49€. 100% Carricante. I would have to go back and check, but I am pretty sure that I have written more about the wines from Donnafugata than any other Italian producer, and it is likely not close. I fell in love with the wines and the people of Donnafugata on two separate visits to Sicily, an island where I hope to soon return. So even though I was nowhere near Sicily, when I saw this on a menu in Como, I did not hesitate (although the restaurant price was a bit high for Europe, but I digress). Carricante might not only be my favorite Sicilian white variety, it may be my favorite in all of Italy (but that will require decades of further research, naturally). Brilliant straw color in the glass with bright fruit: Asian pear, green apple, and lemon rind. There is also a distinct mineral note that carries over to the palate which is quite tart initially followed by fruit and that mineral aspect returns to dominate the lingering finish. Excellent. 92 Points.

  Bottle 1262g. Moderately intense aromas, delicate lemon, herb, and something not petrol but in that area. Dry, with elevated acidity, light-bodied, 12°. Light lemon and salinity carrying through the moderate finish. Not that intense for a "volcanic" wine.
