My new Favorite white, just love mountain fruit! Named for mountain range dividing Napa & Sonoma, old stone winery dug into side of dormant volcano crater in 1889, remained in production ever since. Pale lemon with aromas of Tropical and stone fruit with complex spice and blossom notes. On the palate apple, pear and citrus zest flavors with light oak and honey tones, fresh and vibrant, well integrated. Long finish ending with flinty mineral characteristics. Long aging potential. Nice! — 5 years ago

A very small production of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio from an ancient vineyard on the slope of a crater of Mount Etna. Minerality at it best and elegance. — 8 years ago

Malvasia Bianco. Pre-phylloxera vineyards in old crater in Lipari. Pumice, ash and sand soil. Great example of a volcanic wine and minerality. Complex yet quaffable, aromatic herbs, slight honey and smoky notes. Very intriguing wine! — 6 years ago
