Alta Moro Etna Bianco
Description
This award winning Etna Bianco from Mt Etna is medium yellow in colour with aromas of pear and white peach. The citrus flavours are slightly salty with a hint of honey and minerals, it is a full bodied, big white!
"This crisp white wine proves highly drinkable and enjoyable"
The largest volcano in Europe – Mt Etna is a symbol of nature’s ardour and an ancient and tenacious viniculture – it's the place that brothers Diego and Alberto Cusumano have chosen together with their father Francesco for their Alta Moro winery. Their challenge: to create wines that express the quality and character of a unique land.
Varietal: Carricante, a native Sicilian grape variety
Area of production: Contrada Arrigo, Linguaglossa and Castiglione di Sicilia in the Contrade Verzella and Pietramarina where the freshness of the land allows full ripening of the Carricante without altering its aromas.

Winery Profile:
Designed with maximum respect for the grape and its integrity, the winery was built in accordance with the tenets of hypogean architecture, affording considerable energy savings thanks to natural heat insulation and the use of biomass energy. Made with natural materials such as lava and opus signinum, the structure integrates seamlessly with the pristine natural surroundings. Cool in summer, mild in winter, the lava rock in the basement helps to keep and control temperature and humidity and with good shelter from the light, it ensures optimal conditions for all stages of winemaking.

Can my wine be left if I’m not home?
Yes! However if someone else is accepting the delivery for you, they must be over 18 years of age. Bottega Italia cannot deliver wines to anyone less than 18 years of age. If there is any doubt about the age of the recipient on delivery, our delivery drivers are obliged to request some form of photographic ID. If that recipient is unable to produce appropriate ID then the delivery driver will be unable to leave the wine.
If nobody will be at home, then just make sure when placing your order that you give us explicit instructions that it’s ok to leave the delivery. With "Authority to Leave" deliveries, our couriers will leave the wine in a safe place, where possible at the delivery address. If that’s not possible, the driver will leave a card to advise that the delivery has been will be directed to the nearest Parcel Connect agent.
By providing us with an "Authority To Leave" instruction when placing your order, then you authorise the courier to leave the goods unattended at the delivery address and you accept that once the courier has done so, the complete order has been received.
Can my order be delivered to a P.O. Box?
Unfortunately, we can only deliver to a physical address. We cannot deliver to a P.O. Box. address.
