WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Isolano Etna Bianco is produced using Carricante grapes, with a small percentage of other varieties. The winemaking process involves fermentation in steel tanks at controlled temperatures between 14-16°C. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 9 months in tanks. It then undergoes an extended period of more than 12 months of bottle aging before it is released to the market. This approach is designed to preserve the wine's aromatic qualities and develop its characteristic minerality and persistence.
