Terre Nere Etna Bianco Santo Spirito 2022

The 2022 Etna Bianco Le Vigne Niche Santo Spirito lifts from the glass with a savory blend of crushed green apples, wet stones and touches of chamomile. This is silky and soothing, with depths of ripe apricot and nectarine complicated by sweet herbal tones and hints of candied lime, all lifted by a core of brisk acidity. It finishes long and lightly structured, leaving a mineral tinge and Asian pear traces slowly fading. Typically, I find the Santo Spirito to be the more forward and accessible Bianco from the Terre Nere portfolio, but in 2022, it's holding its power in reserve. Cellaring is recommended.
