Etna Bianco Pietra Marina 2020 from Benanti is a dry white wine from the Etna region of Sicily, presented in magnum format. This Superiore cuvée is sourced from ancient Carricante vines in the Milo sub-zone, where the proximity to the sea and volcanic ash soils produce wines of immense depth. The 2020 vintage provided a wine with great aromatic height and textural volume. It displays notes of lime curd, white flowers, flint and anise. The magnum format has preserved the wine’s vibrant acidity and mineral focus, ensuring a long and harmonious development. It possesses a persistent and saline finish that highlights the complexity of the Carricante grape in this volcanic terroir.

The 2020 Etna Bianco Superiore Pietra Marina is lifted and finessed with a remarkably pretty and airy character as white flowers, smoke and a dusting of sweet spice give way to nectarines. Elegant in feel yet seemingly weightless, it splashes across the palate with perfumed orchard fruit tones. Nuances of ginger mix with minerals and a subtle hint of citrus as the 2020 finishes with admirable length and a saline note. I'm not finding the typical tension and verticality of Pietra Marina here, but with that said, the 2020 is still lovely. Eric Guido29th May 2025
