Monteleone, "Anthemis" Etna Bianco Doc 2021	92 James Suckling Lemon and lime with mineral and spiced pear character. Medium body. Creamy texture and attractive fruit. It’s focused and delicious. Hints of baking spices and fruit at the end. Drink or hold. 90 Vinous The 2021 Etna Bianco Anthemis seduces with a bouquet that verges on opulence, as a blend of peach preserves, Jordan almonds and vanilla bean wafts up from the glass. This is soft and round on the palate, with a saline tinge and tart orchard fruits, all propelled by brisk acidity. The 2021 tapers off with tension, leaving a salty flourish and a green apple crunch.

Monteleone, "Anthemis" Etna Bianco Doc 2022	95 Wine Enthusiast Aromas of vanilla, jasmine, pineapple and lemon waft leisurely onto a palate where lemon and lime oscillate between sweet and tart. Denser, luxurious notes of white peach, apple, dried pineapple appear before fireworks of heat, salt and acid explode on the palate. If you didn’t know this was a headliner, the mic drop of a finish confirms.	Bottle Image Label Image Shelf Talker Tech Sheet
