Munjebel White 2022,
Frank Cornelissen
A high-altitude Zibbibo revealing the elegance of Etna
The Munjebel White 2022 is a brilliant interpretation of the Zibbibo grape variety, born on the basaltic soils of Etna. This natural and biodynamic cuvée, vinified using destemmed maceration and aged for 6 months in amphorae, reflects Frank Cornelissen's commitment to wines that reflect the purity and richness of Sicily's volcanic terroir. With a fascinating complexity and vibrant freshness, this vintage lends itself equally to special occasions and gourmet meals.
A tasting full of vivacity and depth
To the eye, the Munjebel White reveals a bright and vibrant golden yellow color. The nose is complex and charming, blending notes of tangy citrus, white flowers and juicy fruits, all enhanced by a saline minerality typical of volcanic terroirs. On the palate, this wine offers remarkable tension, with a silky texture and freshness balanced by a precise structure. The finish, long and elegant, leaves a mark of floral aromas and ripe citrus fruits. Served between 10 and 12°C after decanting, it reveals all its complexity.
A remarkable gastronomic versatility
This dry and refined white wine is the perfect accompaniment to grilled fish, shellfish, Mediterranean vegetables or even white meats. It also lends itself to more daring pairings with spicy cuisine or sophisticated vegetarian dishes. As an aperitif or at the heart of a gourmet meal, this wine enhances every moment.
With an aging potential of 5 years, the Munjebel White 2022 embodies the authenticity and elegance of the great natural whites of Etna, in a unique and memorable expression.
