Possibly one of the most famous in the world. He is credited with developing techniques that revolutionised winemaking in Italy.\u003cbr\u003e- International Wine Challenge\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IDDA project is Gaja’s move into Sicily - specifically Mount Etna - and like many things Gaja, it’s done on their own terms. Rather than joining the crowd on Etna’s fashionable north slope, they teamed up with local grower Alberto Graci and headed south, planting Carricante at elevation on volcanic soils near Belpasso and Biancavilla.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 is the first white made entirely at their newly built winery, sitting right within the Belpasso vineyard. Most of the fruit comes from there, with a smaller portion from Biancavilla. It’s 100% Carricante, handled simply - mainly fermented in stainless steel, with a portion in large-format oak for added texture. Some of the wine sees malo, some doesn’t, giving it shape without losing freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause Belpasso lies just outside the Etna DOC, the wine is labelled Sicilia DOP - but don’t mistake the classification for a lack of seriousness. This is a focused, quietly ambitious white with a strong sense of place, made by people who clearly believe Carricante deserves more attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Crushed rocks, sesame, curry leaf, nectarine and lemon zest lead to zesty acidity and orchard fruit. Salty, spicy and mouthwatering with a long candied lime finish.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Eric Guido (Vinous)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n","brand":"Gaja","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56141643317620,"sku":"gkd1789955917741","price":79.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5613\/8100\/files\/2023-idda-bianco-sicilia-dop_1.png?v=1789955919","url":"https:\/\/petcameramon.shop\/products\/2023-idda-bianco-sicilia-dop","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
