The mouthfeel is elegant, fresh, sapid, mineral and characterized by citrus notes. The Etna Bianco of Tornatore winery is perfect to drink in combination with hot appetizers, first and second courses based on fish or fresh cheeses.

The origins of the Tornatore winery date back to 1865, when Giuseppe Tornatore, great-grandfather of the current owner, started farming and began producing wine. The Tornatore winery is located on the northern side of Etna, on a soil of volcanic origin ideal for the production of wines of the highest quality. The Tornatore family has deep roots linked to the territory and a strong respect for traditions; it controls a company that owns 60 hectares of land in the Agro di Castiglione di Sicilia and directly owns more 40 hectares. The land is cultivated for about 46 hectares of vineyards, 8 hectares of olive trees and 5 hectares of hazelnut trees; today the Tornatore company owns the largest vineyard within the Etna doc production area and its wines stand out for their excellent quality / price ratio.
