Tasting Notes: Cantina Maugeri’s Etna Bianco Superiore Contrada Volpare boasts notes of lemon rind, sea salt, ginger and straw along with subtle hints of smoke.
Estate History: Positioned on the eastern slopes of Mount Etna, Europe's highest active volcano, Maugeri represents a viticultural endeavor undertaken by a local Etnean family who returned to their native region to revive winemaking. The property spans 7 hectares, enclosed by a continuous 2.8 km expanse of lava dry-stone walls, creating an amphitheater nestled in fertile volcanic soil that intimately embraces the Mediterranean landscape.
