Fresh and baked apple aromas with a touch of nuttiness. It is more steely on the palate with good depth and weight and a refreshing lemon-zest finish. The Carricante grape takes its name from local Sicilian dialect for “heavily laden.” Yields are limited at Cortese through strict pruning. It was kept on fine yeast lees for five months after fermentation.
