An organic blend of 90% Carricante and 10% Catarratto, the Tenute Bosco 2021 Etna Bianco Piano dei Daini is vinified in stainless steel only. The wine shows transparent luminosity with mineral, white peach and citrus. There's not much complexity here, but Piano dei Daini remains high on drinking appeal nonetheless. Production is 15,000 bottles.

While Tenute Bosco is situated in Castiglione di Sicilia, on Etna's north slope, it now also crafts this small-production white from a single plot in the southwest. 2021 is the first vintage, made from 100% Carricante which spends around four months in French oak tonneaux and stainless steel tanks followed by 18 months in the bottle. Floral and lemony, with a zippy saline backbone, it has some buttery and nutty elements which sit alongside the fresh and juicy fruits.
