Fabio Signorelli - Sustanza, 2023

£47.50

A thrilling exploration of texture and complexity through this Etna orange wine. The nose opens with an intriguing mix of dried citrus peel and ripe pear, weaving in delicate notes of honeycomb and toasted almond for a subtle richness. As it unfolds, the volcanic minerality takes centre stage, grounding the wine with an earthy depth, while the lively citrus zest dances on the palate. A soft, almost velvety tannic grip adds body, and a whisper of spice elevates the experience. The finish is wonderfully long and savoury, with a crisp, saline edge that leaves you longing for another sip. It’s a wine that beckons discovery with every glass.

Vinification

The grapes undergo destemming and pressing, followed by spontaneous fermentation with maceration of 9 to 12 days in open vats. The wine is then aged in glass demijohns and small fiberglass containers, allowing for a precise maturation that preserves the integrity of the varietals and the influence of the volcanic terroir.
