"Toffee apple, floral notes, almond bitterness on the finish. Lovely savoury tang here. Rounded without being heavyweight." Jancis Robinson

"Dusty and savoury with an airy scent of lemon leaves, it is intense and bright in the mouth. Crisp green apple, some yellow plum, peach, peppery spice and a lovely juiciness lead to a savoury, pithy finish." Decanter

"The 2022 Etna Bianco Nerina is a real pleasure. It exudes a tropically inspired yet refined bouquet of fresh mangoes, bananas, mint leaves and sweet smoke. It has a soft and round texture with ripe yellow stone fruit. A dash of candied lemon gives it a nice spiciness. The finish is quite mineral, almost crisp, with citrus and kiwi notes. The 2022 is almost too simple to like, but the balance is just right." Vinous

"Nerina is one of my favourite white wines from Etna, especially when drunk young and fresh. The Bianca Nerina 2022 is particularly crisp and bright with a polished, glossy feel. Flavours of citrus, white peach and honey come to the fore. To be honest, I've never been able to keep a bottle long enough to trace its evolution." Wine Advocate

"This wine is perfumed with notes of citrus blossom and citrus leaf as well as white peach and chalky soil. Beautiful texture with medium body and lively, penetrating acidity. Smooth and delicious with a refreshing, minty finish." James Suckling
