About Maugeri:

Over a decade ago, sisters Carla, Michela and Paola returned to their family’s ancestral property on the cooler, eastern slopes of Mount Etna in Milo – the only area where Etna Bianco Superiore can be made. The seven hectare farm of over 100 terraces of
vineyards is ringed by lava dry-stone walls that stretch from Contrada Volpare into Contrada Praino.

An exceptional amount of work went into replanting and recalibrating the old vineyards, positioning them for greatness under the watchful guidance of enologist Emiliano Falsini. Although Cantina Maugeri is in its infancy it is already a towering force on Etna.

Reviews:

“Carricante in purity, the wine remains in the tank on the fine lees for 8 months. Beautiful bright yellow colour, hints of yellow pulp fruit such as apricot and peach immediately emerge on the nose. You can also perceive the scents of brooms, typical flowers of the volcano. Mineral and citrus note that recalls in the mouth. Very fresh and mineral.” Giorgio Vaiana - Cronachedigusto

"The 2022 Etna Bianco Superiore Contrada Volpare opens in the glass with a savory blend of white flowers, Asian pear and raw almonds. This is pleasantly ripe in character, with balanced cool-toned acidity and a staining of minerality that adds a tactile crunch toward the close. It finishes clean and fresh with a resonant twang of sour lime." - Eric Guido, Vinous.
