Tech Sheet
FEMINA means woman, because in our matriarchal culture, women are the pillars of the society. As a good mother the Etna volcano protects and nurtures our families and our vineyards. Made with 100% Carricante grape grown on the terraces carved on the steep slopes of the volcano at 2,100 feet above sea level. The pitch-black soil provides incredible minerality, body structure and elegance. The extreme high elevation completes the job adding acidity and great aromatic complexity. Best served at 53° F.
