Our first white wine started as an orange wine, fermented with the skins for a long period. I liked the tactile sensation and the density, but I missed the finesse and precision of classic French white wines from the Loire, for example. With the 2015 vintage, I modified our technique to seek purity and the flavors of Etna, which led us to maintain a short period of skin contact and to age our white wines for a long period in the coldest part of our cellar before bottling. The elegance, purity, and density achieved make this wine an ideal companion for a wide variety of dishes and cuisines, from fish to white meat.

Magnum Munjebel Blanc 2016, Frank Cornelissen
Produced on mid-altitude plots from equal parts Grecanico Dorato and Carricante, on the Calderara, Borriglione, Crasà and Picciolo plots, this white is very mature. It combines beautiful concentration, freshness and oriental aromas: orange blossom, jasmine, dried apricot. The vines are over forty years old; the grapes are destemmed, lightly crushed and macerated for about four days. No fining, no sulfiting, light filtration before bottling. This wine will pair with an almost infinite variety of dishes, meat and fish, oysters and shellfish, and all Asian cuisines.
Natural wine with no added sulfites.
