Terre Nere Etna Bianco 2025

Terre Nere Etna Bianco is a refined organic white wine that captures the character of Mount Etna with striking clarity. Made from a blend of Carricante, Catarratto, Grecanico Dorato and Minnella Bianca, it stands out for its vibrant freshness, volcanic minerality and elegant balance. First produced in 2005, it has quickly become one of the most distinctive white wines from Sicily.

Tasting Notes
Pale straw yellow in the glass, Etna Bianco opens with a delicate and expressive bouquet of white flowers, lime blossom, citrus and green apple. The aromatic profile is lifted and precise, with a clean, mountain-driven freshness that immediately signals its Etna origins. On the palate, it is dry, juicy and finely textured, with a silky mouthfeel wrapped around a lively acidic backbone and a deep mineral core. The finish is crisp, pure and persistent, making it enjoyable now for its brightness and clarity, while still capable of developing added nuance over the next few years.

Production
This wine comes from the northern slopes of Mount Etna, where vineyards are planted in volcanic black soils at 600 to 900 meters above sea level in the communes of Randazzo and Castiglione di Sicilia. The crus of Guardiola, Calderara and Feudo di Mezzo contribute distinct micro-terroirs, while the large day-to-night temperature shifts at altitude help preserve aromatic precision and natural tension. Harvest is carried out organically in the first ten days of October, followed by gentle pressing, cold static settling, controlled fermentation in stainless steel and at least five months of maturation on steel to preserve freshness and purity.

Food & Serving
Etna Bianco is an excellent match for light starters, shellfish, and refined fish and seafood dishes, especially those with delicate herbs, citrus or olive oil. Serve it well chilled, ideally around 8-10°C, and there is no need to decant. A short rest in the glass is enough to let its floral and mineral notes unfold.

Producer
Tenuta delle Terre Nere was founded in 2002 by Marc de Grazia and has become a benchmark producer on the northern slopes of Mount Etna. The estate is known for its work with historic vineyards and volcanic micro-terroirs that are often compared to Burgundy for their complexity and site expression. With a strong commitment to organic farming, the winery has helped bring international attention to Etna’s unique white and red wines, especially through the elegance and individuality of its Etna Bianco.
