Tasca d’Almerita 'Buonora' Etna Bianco 2016 Review

This Grüner Veltliner-like Etna Bianco is all prickly lime and sea salt. The nose is slightly candied, with tones of ripe peach, large rocks, and sea breeze, while the medium-bodied palate springs forth with freshly-zested lime. It lingers on the tongue, leading to a well-balanced, acid-driven finish.
