Description and technical sheet
Idda Sicilia Bianco DOP 2025 offers a distinctive expression of Mount Etna through 100% Carricante, Sicily’s native white grape. It comes from the collaboration between Angelo Gaja and Alberto Graci, whose shared project focuses on the diverse vineyard sites of the volcano.
Carricante grown on volcanic slopes
The fruit comes from vineyards in Biancavilla and Belpasso, on Etna’s southwestern and southern slopes. Their volcanic soils have contrasting characteristics: older, paler soils around Biancavilla and darker, more porous ground with volcanic rock around Belpasso. This diversity of sites is central to the identity of Idda’s white wine.
Winemaking and tasting character
The wine matures partly in oak and partly in stainless steel, preserving the grape’s lively character while adding texture. Floral and citrus aromas meet Mediterranean herbs, anise and apricot. On the palate, fresh acidity provides tension and definition, leading to a bright, gently saline and mineral finish.
A different perspective on Etna white wine
Although its vineyards are on Etna, the wine is labelled Sicilia DOP. It is a compelling choice for anyone exploring Carricante and the contribution of two influential Italian winegrowing families. The 2025 vintage received 94 points from James Suckling.
