Tenute di Nuna, Tenute Di Nuna Etna Bianco 2019 Magnum

Tenute di Nuna Etna Bianco 2019 Magnum is a finely tuned white wine from the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna, where altitude, cool nights and lava-rich soils create wines of striking freshness and precision. In magnum format, it gains an extra layer of harmony and slower evolution, making it especially appealing for both immediate enjoyment and cellaring. Crafted from Carricante and shaped by a low-intervention philosophy, it captures the historic elegance and mineral character that have made Etna one of Italy’s most exciting white-wine regions.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a clear straw-yellow colour with subtle green and golden reflections. The bouquet is lifted and complex, with citrus, green pear, white flowers, fresh herbs, a faint smoky edge and a strong volcanic mineral note. The palate is medium to full-bodied with vibrant acidity, a firm structure and a lightly creamy texture that gives the wine real depth. Flavours of citrus zest, stone fruit, saline minerals and a delicate savoury finish linger beautifully. While already very expressive, it has excellent ageing potential, particularly in magnum, where its complexity and texture will continue to unfold over the coming years.

Production
The wine comes from vineyards on Etna’s northern slopes, where volcanic soils of lava and ash, combined with significant day-night temperature shifts, help preserve acidity and build mineral tension. These high-altitude conditions support slow ripening and give the wine its characteristic clarity and structure. Tenute di Nuna works on a small scale with a strong focus on authenticity and minimal intervention. Vinification is designed to express terroir, with fermentation and ageing partly in wood and/or extended lees contact to add texture and depth without softening the wine’s precise, mineral style.

Food & Serving
This Etna Bianco pairs well with grilled fish, shellfish, oysters, sushi, risotto with seafood, roasted poultry and vegetable dishes with herbs or citrus. Serve chilled at 10–12 °C. Decanting is not necessary, but a brief aeration can help bring out the wine’s aromatic detail, especially if opened young.

Producer
Tenute di Nuna is a small-scale producer dedicated to authentic, terroir-driven wines from Mount Etna, one of Sicily’s most distinctive and prestigious wine regions. The estate’s focus on low-intervention farming and thoughtful cellar work reflects a commitment to purity and place. While still boutique in scale, Tenute di Nuna stands out for wines that combine precision, volcanic minerality and strong ageing potential.
