Etna Bianco: A Wine, A Land, A Volcano

Etna Bianco, born at the foot of the most active volcano in Europe, is an extraordinary example of how a territory can express itself through its wines. This Sicilian white, with its unique personality, tells a story of challenges and passion.

The Volcanic Roots of Etna Bianco

The peculiarity of Etna Bianco derives from its volcanic origin. The mineral-rich soils and the particular climatic conditions of Etna give this wine unique characteristics. The main varieties used are Carricante and Catarratto, native grapes that best represent the soul of this territory.

Cantina Benanti: Pioneers of Etna

In the heart of this impervious and fascinating land, Cantina Benanti has distinguished itself as one of the most respected producers of Etna Bianco. Founded at the end of the 19th century, the Benanti family has dedicated generations to searching for the maximum expression of the Etna terroir.

The Bianco di Benanti is a wine that fascinates with its complexity and elegance. With notes of ripe fruit, white flowers and a marked minerality, this wine offers a perfect balance between freshness and structure, reflecting the strength and beauty of its territory.

A Versatile Wine at the Table

Etna Bianco goes beautifully with a variety of dishes: from seafood to Mediterranean cuisine, from fresh cheeses to vegetable dishes. Its versatility makes it ideal to accompany both refined dinners and convivial moments.

Etna Bianco, and in particular that of Cantina Benanti, is a sensorial journey that combines taste with the story of an unparalleled territory. Each sip is an exploration of the nuances of a volcano which, with its energy and power, has shaped not only the land but also the culture and history of those who live on its slopes.
