2025 Graci Etna Bianco (Carricante)

Graci’s Etna Bianco is rooted in the northern side of the volcano, around Passopisciaro. Carricante leads the blend, with Catarratto alongside it. The estate identifies Muganazzi, Santo Spirito and Arcuria as the source contrade for this cuvée, vineyards that sit between 600 and 800 metres. This is an introduction to Graci’s interpretation of Etna Bianco DOC across several sites. The 2025 opens with floral lift around pear and apple, a touch of white pepper giving the fruit a savory edge. Silky texture is part of its appeal. Graci describes the bottling’s broader style in terms of lively acidity and a savory, mineral finish: a combination of supple entry and a vertical spine that keeps the focus on freshness.
