Eduardo Torres Acosta Terre Siciliane Bianco 'Versante Est' 2020

Eduardo Torres learned to make wine on his native Canary Islands, then ultimately decided to move to Sicily in 2012. Here, he took an internship with Arianna Occhipinti, followed by a position at Passopisciaro, one of Sicily’s most esteemed wineries. As of 2014, Eduardo vinified his first vintage of his own. Farming and winemaking are all done naturally, and Eduardo focuses on indigenous varieties.

This vintage is the first vintage of this bottling from the volcanic ash, east slope parcels. Carricante is blending with a small portion of other local varieties. These bush plantings average 80 years and are all organic and hand harvested.  Fermented spontaneously with native yeasts and without sulfur in concrete without temperature control. A salt-tinged, low intervention wine with fragrant character to pair with tinned seafood or substantial salads.
