// 70% Carricante, 30% Catarratto, Inzolia, Grecanico, Minnella and Coda Di Volpe
"Named for the late widow of Girolamo, Nerina. A fine and elegant bouquet where the typical citrus and floral notes stand out, with light spicy hints. Fresh, savoury in which the acid component balances the alcohol component and makes the wine persistent, long and extremely mineral." - Girolamo Russo, Winemaker
"The Girolamo Russo 2024 Etna Bianca Nerina is 85% Carricante and 15% other local grapes with a grassy side and aromas of the wild chamomile flower that grows on the slopes of Etna. The wine is balanced and not too fresh in this warm vintage but with a nice sense of easy-drinking fruit and accessibility." - 92 Points, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate
"The 2024 Etna Bianco Nerina is spicy to the core with shavings of lemon complemented by rosemary and ginger. It's soothingly round and pliant with sweet green melon and herbal tones carried across a stream of fresh acidity. This leaves the palate completely refreshed, tapering off clean and crisp while leaving pretty inner florals to fade slowly on the finish." - 90 Points, Eric Guido, Vinous
