Category: Wine
Sub-Category: White Wine

Torre Mora Scalunera Etna Bianco (100% Carricante) has a bold and nimble bouquet with fresh white fruit and herbal aromas.

This wine is rich in flavour that springs up with lively acidity.  A fresh and salty mineral essence lingers on the finish.

Long, persistent and sapid - it's distinct volcanic minerality, salinity and lemon notes bring a beach reminiscent vibe supported by a remarkable concentration.

This is a food wine that goes wonderfully with seafood, grilled or even better, sprinkle some on your pasta while cooking!
