Susucaru Bianco Terre Siciliane White 2024
Frank Cornelissen’s take on an approachable Sicilian white, first made in 2021 as a collaboration with musician Sondre Lerche. Catarratto from Alcamo, one of Frank’s favorite white wine areas on the island, joins Carricante and Grecanico d’Orato from Etna, all from vines over 30 years old. The grapes are destemmed, lightly crushed, and given about 3 hours on the skins before fermenting with native yeasts from a pied de cuve. Aged around 10 months in epoxy, unfined, and lightly filtered before bottling. Sulfur is added only when the vintage calls for it. A lighter style white with real character and sapidity.
