Robert Parker (RP) : 93 Points (2021)

The 2021 Etna Bianco Archineri is a beautiful wine with the crystalline luminosity and bright aromas that you look for in a wine from Etna made with the popular Carricante grape. In this case, fruit comes from pre-phylloxera vines at 900 meters in elevation. There is some saltiness and crushed oyster shell with grapefruit, unripe peach and green apple. Production is 7,000 bottles.

James Suckling (JS) : 95 Points (2020)

Clear and bright aromas of sliced pear, melon, apple and honeysuckle. Full-bodied, layered and creamy with density and richness, yet it remains agile. Some cooked lemon and bitter lemon at the end. Honeysuckle and sage, too. From carricante vines that are about 100 years old.

Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 90 Points (2019)

Spanish broom, green melon and honey aromas lead the nose. Made with grapes from extremely old vines, the palate features ripe pear, lemon drop candy and tangy saline before a white almond close. (KO) (11/2020)

Decanter (DCT) : 93 Points (2018)

Splendid wine, produced from pre-phylloxera vines at 850m on Etna’s eastern slopes. Lively lime nose, the attack fresh and intense. Ripe citrus flavours dominate; very concentrated, mineral and imposing.

In 2005, Michele Faro established Pietradolce near Castiglione di Sicilia on Mount Etna’s northern slope. He and his team farm 27 acres of native Etna varieties, including a plot of ungrafted, alberello-trained carricante at 2,788 feet up Etna’s eastern slope. Winemaker Carlo Ferrini soft-presses the grapes and vinifies the wine in stainless steel, spotlighting carricante’s zesty lemon flavors and saline minerality. Tensile acidity keeps the wine tightly wound; it will benefit from another year in bottle, but there’s plenty of potential here.
