Sage, mint, apricot skin and lime marmalade scents pull you in to an intense, juicy and wonderfully sapid palate, with a lovely lick of tropical fruits and some floral white peach. Poised and zesty, with a stoniness on the mid-palate, it's an inspired bottling from high up on the Etna's north slope. Estate director Vincenzo Lo Mauro believes that the Chardonnay Passopisciaro grows in Passochianci – a subzone of Guardiola reaching up to 970 metres above sea level – is the highest in Europe. Contrada PC is 100% Chardonnay from this plot, and is almost reminiscent of grand cru Chablis.
