Passobianco 2019 Passopisciaro
Let yourself be conquered by a glass of Passobianco 2019 wine by Passopisciaro, a Sicilian Chardonnay in purity grown on deep and mineral soils on the steep terraces of Contrada Guardiola at 800-1000 m asl. Passobianco 2019 is a vintage of excellent quality because the rains were not frequent. Passobianco di Passopisciaro is characterized by freshness, good acidity and minerality. Its complexity is due to the combination of specific light conditions, temperature range, high altitude and volcanic soil that are found only on Etna. It has great aging potential.
